Back before I had a garage, I used several different brands of cover. None of the outdoor ones are perfect. You might want to consider getting a really nicely fitted indoor cover, and then putting an outdoor cover over it. Otherwise, dust, dirt, and condensation will get under the cover. Good luck.

Noah material cover is the best outdoor cover. Almost impossible to keep dust from blowing underneath a cover. The Noah will keep the car dry when it rains, and dries fast. Custom fit. Mine is 24 years old. Don’t use it outdoors anymore. In doors ever winter.

Most of the covers that claim to be designed for outside have only two reinforced grommets at the bottom in the center side of the car to tie a rope through. When the wind picks up it lifts the front and back of the cover off the car so it can flap all over. I asked one main supplier why they didn't have at least six reinforced grommets around the bottom of the cover and they said they offer an extra cost clamp on type of strap. Being able to tread a rope under the car through reinforced grommets at each lower corner and center side prevents the cover from blowing off in the wind.
