PHP Shopping Carts - Short time scale high budget project

Hello,

Maybe on a php programmers forum, people will tell me to code this myself but I do not have time. I have to complete an eccomerce site in six weeks. I would really appreciate it if you let me know if you know of an industry standard/leading php shopping cart/ cms solution. I am happy to pay as much as it takes if that is the case and I am looking for the following:

Easily templated
Good Support
Advanced shopping cart
Nice look and feel to menu's etc
div based layout ideally.

The main reason I am posting is that I cannot seem to find any companies that are clearly leading the way. As I say, if I could pay for the best possible product I would prefer to as I am on such a short time scale.

Any advice would be amazing. I understand enough php to make additions and small changes but want to save my time on this project. If someone could explain if I am wrong in thinking getting another companies shopping cart system to integrate with my site is the best option, please do.

I have looked at the shopping carts that are made for things like drupal and joomla and they don't seem professional enough in terms of support and feel.

Is there a solution out there or is it just the case that if a client wants something that high end, it is standardly hand coded especially? The project has the budget to code it as a bespoke system but not the time.

Please please help!
