If you use the tow loop in the rear you will be fine. It can handle the weight and will lift both rear tires. Just be sure to use jack stands to support the weight.

You can also find a jack point in the front of the car just under the radiator support. It will be just past the plaustic undertray and be in a cutout area.

You can also use the tow hooks in front even though you can;t se them unless the car is jacked up, they are easily accesable when the car is in the air, and are pretty out of the way. Either that or you can use any where on the subframe, or regular parts of the frame.

Good Luck...

Btw, with the chassis so rigid, you can also jack the car up using the front rocker panel point.
This raises the car with both wheels at the same time.Useful when swapping wheels or when the car is too low for the before mentioned front rad mount point and rear tow hook point.
