Car cover opinions wanted

Hey guys..

Can I get some opinions on a good car cover? I'm not concerned with 'cheap' or whatever.. I want what will protect my car the best, not scratch the paint underneath, and will last longer than the 1st time it rains.

I use a Wolf cover that is durable, gentle, and fits beautifully. ($99).

I have an Evolution 4 and am ordering another for my other car. The reason I like this material is that it is thick and affords "bump" protection in my garage where many other power toys reside.

I also have the Wolf car cover and am very happy with it. It's made of the Noah material. I've used it for about 6 months with no scratches. I also had a Noah cover for my previous car for over a year and it held up great, and didn't hurt the paint at all.

I second that :smash: Go with the Noah material. I did a lot of research before I bought my Wolf Noah.... :p:

Wolf cover is excellent. Fits like a glove and is easy on the paint. Keeps the interior cool in the summer too.

My Noah cover only lasted 2 years outside. I now have a Weathershield cover. It is lighter and much easier to handle. After now having it a year, it still looks and repels water like new. :chevy

I've used my Weathershield cover every day since I bought my car six months ago, and it is still like new. Even after a heavy rain, the water sheets off, and the car is dry underneath. It folds up into a very compact size, and you can wash and dry it in a home machine. The Weathershield is more expensive than the other covers, but is worth it, in my opinion.
