I'd like to know as well. But I want a good waterproof one cause I have to park mine in the open. I'm lucky if I get to drive it once a week.

I believe the OP wants to know if there's a local auto store in Honolulu, Hawaii that sells car cover or another member locally that may be selling one.

I bought the OEM Subaru one and am quite happy with it. Fits perfectly.

I'm sure Pacific Motoring Accessories on Sand Island road can get one for you, they used to be Apple Motoring long time ago. I got a sunshade from them, expensive but it is made specific to FRS and fits perfect. Dunno about waterproof though, Sunbrella fabric is supposed to be really good but I'm not sure if its completely waterproof. If it were, that would also capture and retain any moisture that got under the cover. Unless you get a Goretex car cover, which would be really expensive if you could find someone to make one.

Wow! Apple Motoring is a blast from the past. I'm in CA. right now and called a few Subaru dealerships in the area but they all were out of stock of the BRZ car cover.

Friend gave me his Apple Motoring car cover for his Nissan 200SX SE-V6 (figure out how old that makes it!) that I use for my FR-S when I'm away on vacation. The mirror pockets don't match but the overall dimensions are close enough.

I'm skeptical about getting a car cover because I wonder if it'll scratch or marr the paint. Yuh, I've seen car covers on carid.com
