Impala, no matter how maligned it is today, sells decently.
But yes... a nice RWD car would be perfect; however, it would be too close to G8.

I have to agree with you partially here. The Impala as was being designed was on the long wheelbase WM version of statesman. Why not take a step down the ladder to the short wheelbase VE? Just give the VE a refreshed look to match the traverse and Malibu, have the new Impala also replace the Lumina in the middle east, and build all the Left hand drive SWB zetas in Oshawa.
