I use a Yakima Kingpin -- essentially the same rack as the Doubledown 4 (latest version), and like it. Quite solid, with fold-down options (to access the hatch w/o bikes on the rack and to fold the arm when not in use) and nylon cradles that the bike sits in that seem to minimize scratching. One of the cradles is adjustable and sits in the intersection of the seat and top tubes, and pretty effectively eliminates sway. I use this rack on a Ford Focus. I notice that due to the model change it seems Kingpin 4 racks can be found on sale.
