The platform that would need to support it would drain resources from other, more important/profitable products. Chevy doesn't need specialty products beyond Camaro and Corvette. Or do you think those should suffer just to support a low-volume RWD sedan? Or should Tahoe suffer because some GM'ers can't give up on the Holden RWD sedan? Or how about Silverado? Should GM go less-than on that to make room for a RWD sedan that couldn't crack 40K units per year last time around? Think about it...
