doesn't look bad, but won't fit (wrong bolt pattern and offset)

Your car's perfectness is starting to annoy me. 
If anyone hears about a G8 being stolen in Florida, I know nothing about it.
I saw a white GT on the freeway today. Utterly sexy. Motioned "Nice Car" to the guy at the freeway entrance light, and I guess that was some trigger for him to show me what it had like I didn't already know.
Freakin thing got on the freeway and practically left town before I had gotten through the intersection.
I almost felt nauseous not having one. But then realized I couldn't be hauling the 600 lbs of equipment around I have to haul in that G8...and it being compounded by knowing I can't afford both.
Anyways. Its too *dang* bad those 17" chrome bonneville 5 spokes are a different bolt pattern, those things look SEXY on there
