They have bike racks that you can secure to the trunk. That way you can take it off when not in use.

You have a couple of options.

1. Bird Automitive sells a bike rack for the G35. See http://www.birdautomotive.com/Bike%2...niti%20G35.htm
2. Use a bike rack that attaches to the trunk. There are several models available. It looks like Triple8Sol uses one of those. See the middle of this thread
3. Get a hitch and use a hitch mounted bike rack (I installed a hitch on my car that is hidden unless I'm using it, but the hitch is kind of a pain).

Note that I have never seen any roof racks for the coupe.

Guys, I have owned sevaral bike racks only to be dissapointed with each. I just recently purchased a RAXTER bike rack, and this thing is by far the best one I have ever used - I am very happy with it

I forgot exactly where I bought it from, but I paid $404 after tax & shipping.
