Would this car cover fit and works with the BRZ?

I just got the BRZ two days ago, and im not going to be driving it until the winter is over in north jersey. I will be leaving the car in my drive way and im looking for a car cover to protect from snow and stuff like that. The OEM car cover is expensive as hell. So i saw this car cover with good reviews for about $50 and looks like it would fit the BRZ

Just wondering what you guys think or if any one of you have try it.

Thanks

im going to assume yes, the FRS/BRZ has a wheelbase of 101 inches, which is about 8.5ft, with the front and rear bumper say 10-11 ft

that car cover is good for a car that is 13.4ft

yes it will fit

im rocking a car cover meant for a BMW 328I and it works no problem
as long as it covers the entire car you are good

Oh that's cool that it will fit the brz. I just read online that some cover might scratch the paint of the car and stuff like that, so i just want to be sure that it wont be the case with a cover like this.

Scratches usually occur because the car is dusty and the cover just moves the dust around when you take it off/put it on.
