Consider a custom made hitch. Look around, there are fab shops that can do this.

So you won't have electric hedder cut outs I guess? Sigh.
Look at these Rocky Mounts (Europitchfork). They are very very good.

I had an 99 EMS in college, so I'm very susceptible to these. Seeing this one with those big shoes makes it so much worse.

Having worked with hitch racks for many years, there are definitely a number of hitch options. Your dealer will likely be happy to install one for you, but you can save yourself a bunch of money going to a truck supply shop that will likely do a better job installing a hitch for you. That said, I like roof racks much better than hitch mounts anyway.

perhaps, but it would involve cutting the rear fascia

yes, please do not cut the car

it's a wagon so you can have a roof rack - i mean isn't that part of the point?? will look so badass!

So who else here wants a 'Belgian rules' classic 911?

Then never mind. Don't cut it. Go for the roof.

I like the front wheel off the ground, but I'm currently interested in a winter fun car. Something that is cheap and will look great with 4 winter tires on steelies. Maybe like that SAAB 99 or a 944. Any ideas?

SAABs go like stink in snow. Total gas. My GF in college had one we beat to death, or tried to driving in MN winters. The car is pretty unstoppable.

'87 900 SPG. Still the single overall Best/Fun car I have ever owned.

[AntLockyer]

Hate to do this but the Subaru I have is a real hoot. Its not a 911 but it is fun in a different way.

[Mr B]

What kind of Subaru is it?
I had a '96 Legacy Outback and hated the way it handled. Steering geo seemed plain weird, and the whole car basically made me miss RWD like crazy.

[maunahaole]

I had four snows on a 900t at one point in time. It rumbled right through 1'+ of Tahoe snow set up like that.

Uh Oh, now there's even more reason to find some cool winter wheels:
