    Anything under $100 is a waste of money. $200 might get you a year or two. A good cover that will last, will cost you $350 and up.

    If a car is stored inside the cheaper breathable covers are fine, but outside is a whole different deal if you want it to work. In some cases I think a car is better off uncovered, than covered up with a cheap cover. I had two California car covers & they were very nice. At the time they were around $300 & I see now they have gotten pretty darn expensive. https://www.calcarcover.com I am very fortunate to have indoor storage now for my cars, but the CA covers are really nice & fit like a stretch glove on the cars I had them on.

    I just looked again. CA car cover has the Noah outdoor fitted cover listed for $250-ish. thats not too bad imo.

    Yes fits very well. If I get 2 or 3 years out of it, I got my money worth.

    I have several Covercraft brand outdoor covers. The one is probably 8 yesrs old or more. Most outdoor covers from any brand will only be good for a few years and then they get stretched out and dont fit as well too.
