G35 Coupe Bike Rack Setup Recommendation

I know there have been other threads on this, but wanted to give my first hand recommendation for a setup to safely and securely carry bikes on the back of a G35 coupe.

I installed a Curt hitch and use a hitch rack by a company called Swagman.
Never heard of them before but another member (Bahuba?) showed his setup and I can say first hand this is the best rack to use. No straps, on and off in seconds, and very secure.. tried hard cornering and the bike wont budge..

There is a bit of hitch ratlling but there is a little device that stops the rattle that I'm picking up. If youre looking for a setup, check out swagman.. they're based up in Canada and btw, their prices are considerable less than the mainstays Yakima and Thule. I think their site is swagman.net.

HOpe this helps.
