Default 350z Bike Racks - what options?

I was fortunate in my last car to have a Bauer Evolution hitch bike rack that fit into a 1 1/4" receiver, but it seems that the Z does not yet have a hitch for it.

Has anyone contemplated other solutions for carrying bicycles on the Z this summer?

Not to be rude or anything, but i dont think the Z was meant to have a hitch or a bike rack attatched...after all, it's a sports car and not an SUV.

Here are some bike racks to check out.


The bike rack that doesn't touch the body of your car!

These two companies are thinking of making it for the 350Z
Give them a call and let them know you are interested, I did.

Designed to blend into the car attractively and aerodynamically.

I use Yakima roof racks, they're the best imo, but I sure wouldn't put one on my Z ! BTW, will a bike fit inside the back? I'm a part time racer.

Don't think anything will really work well on the Z with out a lot of modification and at that point might be cheeper to get a beater to carry your bikes
