Any car discontinued or not will gain in value if kept in mint condition.

A general comment on collectability. In general a car that was popular when new, becomes quite collectable as time passes. Whether it deserves it or not. Case in point, a 1955 Chevy. There is nothing about a 1955 Chevy that indicates any kind of collectable uniqness in design, execution, value at the time of manufacture and the list goes on.
It was however extremely popular in the showroom in it's day. It is popular today. Something the Saturn was hardly ever and primarily responsible for the current position. Out of business!
But
if you look in the forums, the original Saturn, the one that took all the (undeserved) heat at the time, is the one that gets the most activity in the forums. It was in and of itself a unique car in many ways, poorly marketed and under-recognized. It is a car that has long deserved beater status as a cheap throwaway used car, but seems to hang in with some form of popularity. While by in large, the last offerings were both dumpy (arguable to some) and re-badged generic GM products from the international market place. Hardly a stellar recommendation.
Discontinued does not guarantee success in automotive collectabillity as many a sad tale can be found.
Realistically, how big is the waiting line to own a Gareau, last seen in 1910, in Canada.
