Car Covers?
Anyone have a specific recommendation? I used to have a generic one for my Tiburon, but it always seems to come off and it ripped after not much use. I'm hoping for something that's fitted and can be packed away relatively quickly as my girls is spending too much time in the parking lot without cover.
I was thinking about this guy: Cover Store But I wanted to see if anyone had a positive experience with any other car covers. |

Scratches your paint, even if its a very soft material.
Dust/dirt + anything rubbing against the paint = fine scratches Assuming it'll be left outdoors, even worse with wind... |

I just went with the car cover from Subaru for my BRZ. Mine is stored indoors though, and the cover is never put on unless the car has just been cleaned. I've never used a car cover on a car kept outdoors, and for me I'm not sure it is worth it. Too much chance of damage to the paint, and I wouldn't feel like washing the car before I put the cover on every time.

I am currently using Wal-Mart size 3 car cover and it works flawless, granted you park your car in your garage blocking wind and water you should be fine with any car cover.
