I am holding off purchasing a 2014 Q50 until there is a trailer hitch (hidden) that can tow a 500 pound trailer/Sunfish Sailboat and also accept a bicycle rack. Does anyone know if such a hitch exists? Thanks.

not yet for the Q50, if any hitch happens to come out, it will only be an 1 1/4 inch hitch. which limits towing as its not what the car is made for. as for bike racks a class 1 hitch will only be able to take 3 bikes on a ALUMINUM bike rack, 2 bikes for steel. I wouldnt recommend towing with a Q50 as all the hitches for g37s that ever came out was never rated for towing much.

All correct and OM does not recommend towing with Q50.
I have hitch 11/4" on my g37 convertible for bikes only.

I used to tow my dirt bikes with my maxima... would get some crazy looks.

It just doesn't look right...

I've installed tons of hitches at my work, and i've seen some people do some pretty crazy things with a 1 1/4 hitch, one of which includes towing a motorcycle trailer via a drawbar. Not to say it isnt possible, because most class I hitches are rated to tow 1500 pounds with a 150 pound tongue weight, however doesnt mean i would do it or recommend it.

However 500 pounds isnt a whole lot, but its solely up to you if you can justify it or not.
