Mid 90's Caprices did fairly well (relatively speaking). A high torque/low RPM cam, often called RV cams, are readily available & would help. They are rear wheel drive so you could swap gearing.

The Impala SS had a decently sloped rear window, I think the Caprice was the same, but I'm not sure.
They also had half wheel "skirts" as part of the sheet metal.

They're no Honda Civic, but you don't want one of those anyway.
