Would this bike rack work on a 991?

I saw this at a cyclocross race this season but never got to talk to the owner, so I don't know any details. Would it be possible for a 991?

I would buy the Porsche roof rack instead (unless you have a convertible). It connects to factory mounting points and works well.

Easily installed and removed, clean look and very solid. Yakima makes a very high end fork bike mount- tray that matches perfectly ( under the name Whisper Bar or something like that)...

I use a roof rack for my kayaks, but I prefer a hitch rack for my bikes since I keep my cars in my garage. That way I can load the bike up the night before then roll out of bed & straight into the car to hit the trails (it's especially nice to have everything preloaded when it's cold out!).

Roof rack the way to go. That rear mount thing is so ugly.
