Daily driver - 370z sits outside - car cover worth it?

Ugh, not en easy decision. I would look into somehow getting a car port or something. Sun kills the paint and with a cover no matter how diligent you are

Yeah so, it's ceramic coated - which should help against sun...

I'm looking into a car port, but they're so damn ugly. Trying to figure out the best solution - besides - 'get a garage'
