Depends on your use of it. Will it be primarily outside or will it be kept in the garage? You should also check out Coverking. Their site has allot of useful info on the make up of the cover, the use for that specific cover, etc. You might also visit the part for sale section. Sometimes they have group buys and discounts offered from forum vendors. Good luck. I bought a Coverking Storm proof from CCA-a forum vendor ( http://www.customcorvetteaccessories.com/carcovers.html ). It's pretty good for inside and works great in the weather.

Got mine from a forum vendor, it is for outside use. Plenty of options for you to seek out.

Cover King Weather Shield HD best outdoor cover I have ever used. Noah is a good cover but in time after a rain car is covered in white dust. The weather shield cover water beads up and runs off it's amazing.

Stormproof from Cover King here. It seemed to be the best all around cover for use outside on trips. It's not bulky and is reasonably soft. Decent water repellancy & breathability.

Thanks to Corvette Forum, I knew to get a NOAH cover. Just ordered from (forum vendor) Corvette Central. Free shipping through Monday 7/28, and a great price.
