Given the bike on his rack, I'd say it's more fun to drive to many trailheads than a 911; he'll actually get there and back! lol
So do some Treks! And, of course, the other more boutique brands, too.

I know bicycles can be relatively expensive, but Porsche bicycles aren't worth it.

I’ve used all sorts of roof racks and the Porsche example is by far the best engineered & executed example.
What’s most impressive is the unique mounting points. All 991’s have built-in swivel mounts underneath the weather stripping. These mate directl with the roof transport system so that there’s no contact with the paint.
Once you’ve set it up, uninstalling & reinstalling takes less than 10 minutes. Brilliantly effective!

Maybe just me but my 2013 I couldn't seem to route the rubber inside the roof rack ends...didn't work and they did get creased over time.
I agree it's well design to have no contact with paint!
How did you get the Thule's to mount? I found the Thule mountings really didn't work on my RTS - and Thule says they won't fit as well. Porsche designed it so you to have to pay 2x for the Porsche bike mounts ...

My rack is Thule's newest and it was just released, so maybe they've updated their mounting system because it worked fine out of the box for me.
