Dangerous w/out the roofrack?
#16
I like it both ways, with the R.R. crossbars on and off. With them on it looks rugged, with them off it looks sleek. I currently have mine off.
Dunno about other members here, but I have never used my roof rack (although I have had the car for less than a week - never put it on!) but there is a red P5 at my school which regularly has a bike or two on on it.

I personally don't like the look of the roof rack. I prefer a sleek clean car, its too bad the structures are black and not colour matched to the cars. Why have a roof rack if your not going to use it, it just cost more, creates noise, worstens the aerodynamics and gives people the impression your going on a safari. Just buy a truck and you can still have all those options. Just my two cents (three cents CAN) on what i think of roof racks.

We, in Canada, don't get the roof rack as standard. Just as well, as I like the sleek look of the car without it, and I would never use it anyway. My last vehicle was an Explorer, which came with a roof rack that NEVER got used in 4 years of ownership. Even if I were to use it on the "Exploder", the vehicle is fairly tall that I would be afraid of scratching the hell out of the roof trying to load a bicycle or whatever on to it every time. My wife and I have no kids, so we just fold down the seats and throw everything in the back, where it is dry and secure. If I need to carry something beyond the interior capabilities of my P5, I'll just borrow my father-in-law's van.

a little confused...
Larry quick question for you, are you talking about the black "strips" that go over where you took the base of the roof rack out? or are you talking about the entire roof rack off? please explain what you mean... im a little confused.

Everyone I know who bought a P5 have those insert covers and the rack parts when they bought the cars.
