The trunk mounted bike rack that I would recommend for your 2011 BMW 335 xi Sedan is the Thule OutWay 2 Bike Rack, # TH45JV. This is one of our most popular bike racks that uses 2 ratcheting cables to secure the bike rack to your trunk. The cables will provide a stronger connection than traditional straps and you will not have to worry about straps flying around in the wind.

If you plan on carrying any women's, children's or alternative bike frames, then you may also want to pick up the Thule Bike Adapter Bar, # TH982XT. Some small and angled bike frames can be difficult to load on a bike rack and this adapter will allow you to load the bikes easily and safely.
