Talk to Gert over at Carnewal. He has great covers. Not cheap. Many colors available. And they have the Porsche crest on front.

I use what came with the car...some silver colored thing made my God knows who. When not on the road the 930's in my climate controled garage and the cover keeps the dust off. That's all it needs to do. A piece of 2 mill plastic painters tarp would do the same thing for $3.00, but a few extra bucks for a form-fitted cover looks a bit better. Mine is made fitted for my car, I'll say that much. Maybe some high-tech high-buck cover would be better for keeping the dust off, but I'm a cheap ol' bastad with a minimalist mindset. Function over form, what do you need your cover to do for you?

Default Evolution 4

Covercraft Evolution 4. Buy it at AutoAnything.com for $155. Use it indoors but its actually an all weather cover. What I realy like is how thick the material is. Their literature touts it as being "impact resistant" and I'd vouch for that. The only downside I have is that it takes up quite a bit of space under the bonnet if you take it with you on a trip. Liked it so much, I bought one for my Suburan too.

Thanks for the input guys I think I am going with the Porsche cover, used them before, but did not realize they still make one for the 930 configuration. My garage is heated but the 930 shares the space with two other cars, and subject to the dust caused by opening and closing. Powertech ( thanks BLE2011) has them for $159.00.

Before I purchase a 997 TT cover again ( have one but got accidentally stained by oil filter), would like to see some pictures especially ones with a spoiler pocket.
Thanks
