For now I'm considering Thule XT XXL
I do not have first hand experience yet but this is based on talking with a friend who used a roof rack on his BRZ.

A box will be more sketchy on the highway (not sure what the normal speed limit is where you are traveling but anything over 60mph/95kph). He switched from a box to an open basket and it felt more stable at high speeds.
