Coupe with Kayaks
After extensive research, I rolled the dice and threw two kayaks up on a Genesis Yakima rack system. Has worked so far with ZERO issues. Yes, I know I'm not the first with racks. No, I don't care if you think roof racks are dumb or ugly. I don't care if you don't think that it's structurally sound. I'm not "trying to be JDM". I like my car and I like to float.
Just throwing this out there for people who were curious if it was possible like I was. For the record, I was not able to find a single other image of another coupe with yaks ups top.

Never tried putting kayaks up there but as long as you got the rack there's no reason you can't! A lot of people hate on it because our cars "aren't meant for racks" or whatever or it's "rice" but if you're using it for the right reasons there's no reason not to have it. I'm pretty outdoorsy (live 30 minutes from Lake Tahoe) and for a period of time when I was living at my apartment, my G was the only car I had so I needed to make it work for all my hobbies. I got tired of always having to put my seats down and shoving equipment back there so I researched and got the Yakima Genesis setup as well. Used it for a good year and a half but now I've gotten a house and a few more vehicles, so my G has been relieved of having to haul stuff up.
I used mine for bikes and snowboards. This is the only pic I have of it right now.
Yesss she's super dirty in the picture. She gets that way after playing around in the snow
