Default Car cover options?

I wanted to get thoughts on a all weather car cover. I no longer have a garage and have to keep my z outdoors and don't want the paint to get destroyed by bird ***t and snow. I have looked at car covers.com and they are running around 180 for the best one they have. Any other options that you guys have used?

I bought this cover and really like it. It fits really well.

I'd be cautious when choosing a car cover. Less expensive fabrics can lead to scratches on your paint, contrary to what you're trying to accomplish. For a quality car cover that will last a reasonable amount of time and protect your paint from the elements you're going to spend north of $200.

I'm in the same situation (no garage), and I'm looking into a Noah Car Cover. I've heard good things about them, but I'm still browsing. Best of luck!

Have you pulled the trigger yet? We are supposed to get snow here in the next few days and I need to make a decision. If you have which one did you get?

The Noah is a great cover for the money.
