The Thule OutWay Trunk-Mounted 2-Bike Carrier # TH45JV is a compatible fit for your 2012 BMW 3 Series. It features a vehicle-specific number setting for easy rack adjustment and anchors to your vehicle at 4 points by turning the oversized, ratcheting knobs. It has a weight capacity of 66 lbs and comes with a limited lifetime warranty.

You will need to abide by the weight capacity of the rack and ensure both the rack and the surface of the vehicle that will touch each other are perfectly clean and free of grit.

If you plan to transport women's bikes with this rack, you might be interested in the Thule Womens Adapter Bar # TH982XT. It provides a horizontal bar for women's and children's bikes, providing a more level ride for those bikes and increases ground clearance during transportation. I have included a video review of this product.
