I like the one I got from Devek for about $129. I've had it for several years. Probably available from any of the Big3. Not waterproof - but can "breathe" and protect. Soft inside. Great fit. Also has the cool Porsche logo and comes with a locking cable and storage bag.

MUNYGUY,
I have one of those covers (and bag - not sure about the cable) that I do not use. I don't find the fit to be as good as other available covers (Noah, Weather Shield, etc.) I *think* it may fit pre-S4s better than my GTs. Perhaps the factory never revised the cover for the slightly differrent S4+ dimensions?

Steve? How does that cover fit your S4?

It is a Porsche 928 cover - with the Logo - just as pictured. It is in very good shape.

$50 obo + shipping. PM me if you are interested.

$50 is a good deal. Mine fits the '78 and '87 equally well.

Munyguy,

I bought a car cover from e-bay for my Honda Accord. Sold the Accord. Kept the car cover. After buying the shark decided to try and make it fit. It Fits perfect! Paid $36.99 for it.

I have a indoors only cover that is specific for a S car (pre S4). It is sort of canvas on the outside and some sort of soft fuzzy stuff on the inside. Designed to be very nice to paint. Since I don't have a garage anymore I have not used in about ten years and was thinking about cutting it up for rags. Let me know if you can think of a better use for it.

Just a note of caution about those E-bay covers. I bought one that was "made for the 928" on E-bay at around $60.00 that was supposed to be three layers but when it arrived it was about as thick as a paper towel and fell apart after 4 months. Good luck.
