I recommend going with the Hollywood Racks Over the Top 3, part # HRF2-3 over the Yakima KingJoe/HangOut 3, part # Y02638 .

The Over the Top series is specficially designed to work on vehicles with hatchbacks, and installs without having to modify the straps or add any glass hatch hooks, part # Y02612 to the setup like the HangOut 3 would have you do.

I recommend adding a few accessories to your rack to make using it even easier.

A Swagman Frame Adapter, part # 64005 comes in handy if you're planning on carrying Women's, Step Through, children's or aggressive frame bikes. This bar lets these bikes ride parallel to the ground, reducing the risk of damage to the bike from hanging at an angle as it would without the adapter.

A 10-foot Cable Lock, part # e98891 and passive security strap, part # TH533 also allows for increased security by attaching your bikes to the rack itself, letting you worry less about the security of your bikes and rack.
