I don't know if there's any way you can do this.  I'm not a Georgia attorney, but most provisions in modern DUI sentencing statutes are mandatory, especially for a third offense.

I also don't know if you would still have to get the ignition interlock even if you wait out the full 5-year suspension.

You might try calling the local legal aid agency, where someone familiar with your state's law could review all the facts of your case, to give you reliable advice.
