So is there a unanimous choice for the best car cover?

It's really only bad cause I have a Magnetic Black car :P They run about $130 because you need to get the SUV-C size since the normal car cover size recommended on the box for a Z doesn't fit. But the SUV-C is perfect.

That's the same one I have. It works well but as previously stated the size recommended on the box is too small. It doesn't cover the entire rear bumper and wheels. A seam ripped on the rear bumper but I got it for $75 so I'm not complaining too much. I wanna see how it performs when it starts snowing.

Well at least now you know the proper size to get when you get a new one.

Also notice I have a Nismo wing on the rear, which is bigger than the factory spoiler and he cover still fits fine. In fact, even if you put on the raised-up Nismo wing, given how much room the rear of my cover has it would still fit.

Ive been using this carcover Evolution® and its worked great, being in the Navy and leaving my car in a parking lot for a month or two at a time I needed a tough cover that would take everything SoCal can throw at it. When I pull in and take my cover off I have a clean car.
