Thanks for the advice. I called and e-mailed Rhodes and they were useless. I got a one-liner e-mail saying:"We have no information on your car."
I'll just go to a store where they'll let me fasten it on and give it a try. I have heard funny stories about guys mounting the bikes on the trunk without realizing the front wheel was over the exhaust. The tyre explosion that created caused havoc while driving.
Took a spin up to Wisconsin from Chicago last weekend in my newly purchased 320i. What a car for a road trip. I stayed up there an extra day to just drive around the lakes and check out the scenery.....well the handling really.
They're fairly universally mounted. I checked the site, and it doesn't show the model that I have, and I can't locate the model # anywhere on the carrier. YOu may want to go to a bike shop, and try one out on your car. Just about any decent bike shop will carry them. I've even seen them selling in a Walmart Superstore.
