Any suggestions for an indoor cover?

The OEM GM covers are very nice, fit well, soft fleece liner and come with a nice "Corvette" embroidered carry case for storage when not in use. A little pricey, available from forum sponsor GM parts dealers such as Trunk Monkey etc.

I've got a Triguard cover suitable for indoor, made by CoverKing but purchased through JW Motoring, which I believe is a forum sponsor. Jon there was very easy to deal with.

+1 on the indoor GM cover. Pick it up from forum sponsor Cultrag...I'd post a pic, but not surprisingly it looks like the one already posted by Kevin :-)

I prefer a good quality outdoor cover for inside use. It is more protection for your car if you have little kids/ animals. Of course that depends where your car is parked and the kids, animals mentioned above. Or even you can bump into it. FWIW I use a California car cover. Been using them since the mid 1970s

In my case my Vette sits in a garage for 6 months over the long upstate NY winter and the other part of the garage is a shop. Its easy to bump car with a piece of pipe, a2x4 or carrying a box ETC.

This is an outdoor cover,but I use it inside as well.The zipper door is a nice feature.I use the cover all the time here in the south.Reflects sun & heat well and keeps the car clean.

You can catch it on sale (sometimes) for approx. $80.

I went with the indoor Color Match Satin Stretch. I bought one for my 17 GS on eBay after having one for my 04. The one for the 04 I had for about 8 years and still looked great.

Ain't cheap, but I like my C7.R cover.

It's the #3 car on one side and the #4 car on the other side:

I got a really nice indoor cover from Zip Corvette for $169. It has nice soft underside and fits perfectly over my Level 3 Aero, comes with a storage bag. I had a similar one from Zip on my C6 GS also, no issues, good quality.
