Says who? The Solstice/Saturn Sky did fine in this segment. And of course the BMW 4cyl (N20, probably) would smoke anything GM put in a car.

Get used to it, 6/8 cylinders in non performance cars is going (and already gone) away, across several manufacturers.

Again, "buyer's want" is an artificial term. You know how many female 328 drivers I see/know that have no clue that they have a inline 6? Do they care? Of course not, nor does most of the general public. Goes fast, gets decent mileage = plenty of smiles. Doesn't matter if 4/6/8.
