One answer: Anything’s possible with enough money and ambition...and if you’re not concerned about performance.

A better answer: No. Both are essentially unibodies with unique subframe assemblies to accommodate the different suspensions, wheel bases and track widths. And that’s before you figure in the different chassis wiring, linkages and steering components.

My best answer: Just because it can be done doesn’t mean it should be done. It’s going backwards, like sticking a 911 body on a VW Beatle chassis. And since you asked if it was possible, I can guess you’re not capable of doing it yourself. So you’d be spending stupid silly amounts of money to have someone else do it.
