Thats not a bad thing, makes it easier to work on, have a look under the bonnet of 99% of new cars.

So does this mean the end of xr6/ xr6t & f6?

No, they'll still be around. The inline six however maybe replaced by a 3.5Litre V6 (twin-turbo EcoBoost V6 for XR6T and F6 if Falcon remains RWD) in time.
