Good outdoor cover
Now that I have spent the money to repaint the car, I guess I should buy a nice cover. Not much luck using the search option
Anyone have any opinions or recommendations for a good quality cover that fits well on a 83 S?? I`m looking for a "made for specific car" style, so the winds in my area don`t push the cover around enough to damage paint and the Arizona sun won`t kill the cover in six months. Let me know . Thanks, Kevin

2 suggestions:
1. NOAH - I used a custom fit NOAH cover on my 300ZX convertible for the 2 1/2 years I had the car. I paid $225 for it IIRC. It had very good UV protection, a pretty soft underside, and was pretty rain resistant (probably not much of an issue for you). Stood up well to Florida sun. I sold it with the car and it still had a lot of life left in it. Somewhat bulky material provided some protection from parking lot dings but was also a little bulkier to roll up and pack away - took up a chunk of storage space.
2. I just ordered a custom fit Stormshied cover for my 928. Its due to arrive tomorrow. Great reviews. Should provide excellent sun and rain protection, 10 year prorated warranty. Lighter less bulky than NOAH mean easier to pack but not as good at protecting against dings. Its supposed to arrive tomorrow so I'll have to post back on the material and workmanship. $264 was the discount price from Coversearch - best price I could find. Retails for $373 IIRC.
