There was news this morning that GM is closing 5 plants and removing 6 sedans from it's lineup. Ford also announced previously that it's removing all sedans from it's lineup next year. We all know SUV sales are on fire and sedans are slumping. Compact SUVs are the hottest segment in the US now for mainstream and luxury manufactures. The X3 is now BMW's biggest seller in the US.

Is this the beginning of the end of the sedan in the US? Will sedans eventually go the way of manual transmissions? What does everyone think?
