I don't think a future 3 Series will resemble the 2 GC. The 2's FWD architecture is obvious in the design, which is why it looks so awkward in the front.
There are only 2 ways to gussy up a sedan, which is the Gran Coupe concept with a hatch, or heaven forbid, a wagon.
BMW has made unique versions of cars for specific markets, like the long wheelbase 3 Series for China, so I assume they will continue to do that.
Finally, Ford stopped sedan production, but their sedans were never iconic like the 3 is. And you can argue that a car like the Focus or Fiesta should have continued their lives in the US.
Remember folks, this is all leading up to BMW ditching the Ultimate Driving Machine slogan. Self driving cars, by definition, cannot be the ultimate driving machine.
