I know this is old,but Inno makes a rack for the 3GS.

 

Does anyone transport bikes on their 3GS? I'm trying to decide on a roof or trunk rack. I'm looking for something that won't jack up the paint on the car. Any suggestions.. Thanks

 

Best would be a hitch.

I find it hard to lift the bike up the roof rack, and the trunk rack is kinda flimsy.

 

a hitch.. I didn't know they made one.. but, i don't know if i would want to do that.. i'll google some pics

 

A hitch is a better bet on protecting the paint as it sets the bikes away from the car (if you can find a hitch setup that you can live with in terms of looks). But beware that a standard hitch rack will work fine on flat to minor inclines but doesnt hold the bikes high enough to keep them from scraping if you go up a short severe incline like you might encounter on some parking lots or side streets. Not a common problem but you have to watch for that. I bent a bike rim using a hitch on another car. And if you do a search, i recall a thread in the past about specific trunk racks for GS.

 

"short severe incline" ??? How severe?

http://www.priusonline.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=4861 It looks very clear off the ground to me. I kinda like that rack really.

 

Good for you.

Options to consider

has anyone tried this brand? been looking for a rack system for my 06 but this is what turns up and then the euro lexus but that is way to pricey. i tried road n rack but i dont want to deal with something permanent..... has anyone recently tried this brand or know any one that has? reason being is i am sick of taking apart my bike to put in the trunk. and why does this car have a ski hole?! lol but would use the rack for snowboarding and also my bike... please anyone!!! ?!?!?!?

 

Installing a trailer hitch and a rear bicycle rack might be easier but that doesn't help with snowboards.

If you frequently have to transport large things like bicycles and snowboards this is the wrong car to do it with.

 

A cure for the anemic trunk in my GS450H - I just ordered a Yakima roof rack and the Rocketbox 15 from Amazon. The Q-Towers are on backorder, so I should have them within a month... Will post some picks once I get it.

Anyone else have a Yakima roof rack?

 

any pics? im thinking about picking up a yakima rack as well

 

i have one on my car, this is the only pic i have tho

Love the color combo you have there! I have the exact same

 

yakima??? I thought they didn't make a rack system 3GS. and what rack system is on your car? do you have any other pictures of your car with the rack? I was looking into INNO naked roof system but a bit iffy!
