Default Would it be possible to LS swap a 2015 honda accord

hello, i am asking this question regardless of how dumb it sounds just because if the fact i’m going to be getting one of my family members honda accords soon and want to try and just make it the best car i can in terms of speed and sound without having to just buy a entirely new car, looking into various options i could take i thought it would be a cool thing and unexpected as well for a average honda accord to have a corvette v8 engine in it, so i’m asking the question would thsi be possible and if so what other problems would i run into when trying to do so

First things first; yes, with enough money pretty much anything is possible; my guess is such a swap (which would entail converting your car to RWD) would entail rather substantial structural work on the unibody of the car, significant electrical work, and then either fabbing up an entirely new drive train or somehow figuring out how to take a drive train from say, a wrecked Corvette, and attaching it underneath the body of the Accord.

Long story short, buying "an entirely new car" will cost you FAAAAR less than trying to LS swap your Accord; simple fact of life. If you want a 4-door sedan with LS power, look for a Chevy SS.
