My fiance wants a bike rack for her car, preferably not a roof mount. Any suggestions?

hitch mount? "trunk" mount? in the hatch?

you could duct tape it to the hood...

sadly, if your not wanting to go roof mount your options are limited to the ones that strap onto the hatch of the vehicle and are prone to falling off, or atleast when my dad puts them on they do...

you cant go wrong with a Yak roof mount though

Are there roof mounts that don't require you to take the front wheel off of the bike? She just likes to ride in her free time and wouldn't want the hassle of removing the wheel each time.

You would also have to get the basic rack, but they do make an attachment

note, if she doesn't have the upper body strength, it can be kind of a pain in the ___ getting it up and down from there with the front tire attached.

just get a side car

get a hitch and a hitch mount.. or just remove the front wheel and throw the bike in the back with the seats down

Holy crap.. that would totally cheese out your interior.. talk about scrapes, bump, nicks, and holes.. I had a Saris rear mount that held really well.. If you make sure the pieces are all secure and you've attached them to sturdy places.. you'd do fine..
Not to mention you can find bike racks on craigslist for like.. 40 bucks?

yeah they do. In yakima there called the raptor bike rack

I throw my mtb in the back of my xB and yes, it scratches and scuffs ____. Even though I try to cover up everything, it finds a way.
