Default Good car cover?

My z06 has to sit in the sun all day at work, and there's constantly wood dust in the air. I want to cover it every morning, what's a good(not to expensive) car cover? Thanks...

I use a "Noah" car cover made by Wolf. It cost $165. It's a good fitted, multi layer cover for use indoors & outdoors.

Same here...great protection against dirt, rain and even small hell (kids) and also small hail (ice).

Also, look at the website for CALIFORNIA CAR COVER COMPANY. They explain the types of covers that work optimally for different situations.

I use the Budge Tyvek cover for my 02Z at work.It's light,white and reflects the heat/light/dust/bird do well.Size 3 should do it.

It's about $40 at the Mart of Wal..... It's not as good as the ones mentioned above,but very good for the bux.
