I may be off base here, as I know very little about drag coefficients, but I remember reading that the XF had a lower Cd than a Jeep Cherokee so I did a little checking, it appears that a Cadillac Escalade Hybrid has a Cd of .36 and a Koenigsegg CCX supercar has a Cd of .3

Based on this, I think you would need some SERIOUS sheet metal redesign work to lower it that much, or a new body
