Thule apparently makes one for the sedan, but they don't say it fits the coupe.
BUT, I've been researching, and according to Yakima, the parts needed to mount on a sedan are the same as the coupe.
When I can get back on the bike again, I'm going to order the parts from Thule for the four door and make it fit. The reason I want to go with Thule is that their aero bars rock and I already have had a rack from my VW...

Yakima makes one for the coupe. It gets pricy though...
Q Clips or some **** are the attachment at the door jams. Problem is that the clips on eachside are 16 inches apart, It would look super goofy!!
I just need something for my bike and snowboard. grrrr
And Yakima also makes a trunk rack. Problem with that is that It was rubing the paint so I took it back..

As long as you get a fairing it's not too bad, gives it some personality. But, it's personal preferance and I think alot of people don't like it. Way better than a trunk mount is all I have say. To each his own...
I was looking at the Thule and Yakimas but will probably just get a hitch and a hitch-mount carrier for my bike. I've got a couple cars that I would probably carry it on and that way I can just add a hitch and move the carrier from car to car. I don't think a roof rack is that bad if you actually use it, but they do tend to cause some noise, hurt economy, and can be a pain to hoist heavier bikes onto and off of the car (with greater risk of damaging the paint). If you also want to haul a surfboard and don't want to carry the board in the car (if you can) then the roof rack is probably the only option.
