If you go to my blog, you can see an "inside" rack I built for two bikes, which cost less than $100 to make. It can be modified and adapted to fit almost any situation. But it basically holds two bikes in the space of one. coolfiz.blogspot.com Look at the sidebar on the right.

By the way, my husband is 6'7" and if he had to drive the Element as his daily car, it would be too small (leg room). But he is comfortable for a few hours in either seat (the backseat is really roomy, and stacked like a stadium so you can see through the windshield, but he doesn't like sitting back there.) He drives an F150 supercrew cab.
