V8 option in every make and model? Yeah, that's going away. V8 standard for any fun car? That's staying

nope, Nissan dominated LMP2 with the VK, not GM

I think as long as the lineage of the Mustang, Challenger, and Camaro are going as strong as they are, the V8 will still have a seat at the table. We also forget that Lexus IS still producing V8 engines in the RC and LC. So to answer the main point; no the V8 isn't going Anywhere.
Onto my next point, once Ford actually unveils what will be under the hood of the GT500 (we've heard anything from a TT 5.0 to an NA 7.0) I personally believe that they'll be back on top on the American muscle car scene.
