I realize OP asked for car cover opinions (I have none) but my question is, isn't the whole point of having a "winter beater" to protect your nicer car (as in, keep it indoors) while you abuse the beater?


If it were me, I would just put up with the 10minutes of warming up and scraping ice. Although, if it is not at freezing when you want to drive the beater, I would spray it with water rather than scraping. You can also get one of those remote starters so the car will be toasty when you first come outside.


But, if for some reason, I decided to keep my nicer car outside, I would buy one of those clam shell tents to keep the car in. That way nothing touches the paint.
