looks like a nice car, but I've never been much for engines smaller than 3.1l

Rebadge on Opel Insight. I concur on the need for a "Camaro style resurrection" for such a special car as the Grand National. 2 door cars are not the same as 4 door. Example being the Charger. Nothing like original except name.

If they would ever put a Regal out with plans of doing a GN, I'd rather them restyle from the ground up like they did with the Camaro and add some retro styling but give it a modern look.

But yes, I know what a GN is. I used to own one.

EDIT: Yes though, it is a car fit for a Sith Lord.
What about something that looked like this?

also blackout louvers and some black honeycomb wheels. Flares and hood bump. Black door handles, black door trim, black trim around fog lights, and headlights should be in black with HIDs.
