Will The Thule OutWay Platform 2 Bike Carrier Fit On My 2000 BMW 323i Sport Wagon
Question:
Will this rack fit a 2000 BMW 323i sport wagon?

Expert Reply:
I do have a solution for a trunk mounted bike rack for your 2000 BMW 323i sport wagon, but the item you selected, Thule OutWay Platform 2 Bike Carrier, part # TH65JV, will not work on your vehicle. The reason it wont work is because of the weight.
For a similar trunk bike rack, checkout the Thule OutWay 2 Bike Carrier, part # TH45JV. The other trunk mount bike rack from Thule that will fit your vehicle is the Thule Passage # TH910XT.
If you plan to carry women's, children's or alternative-framed bicycles, I would recommend using the Thule Frame Bike Adapter Bar, part # TH982XT. The Thule Adapter Bar will allow you to carry those types of bicycles level on your trunk bike rack.
