Good car cover

I am looking for a good quality car cover for outside. Something 200 or less price range.

Does anyone have any recommendations?

I have a Noah on a 3rd gen that lives outside and it works well...I wouldnt trust a super nice car under it for an extended amount of time but its certainly better than just leaving it uncovered.

I was going to get one, but since my cars a DD, i think it would only result in tons of surface scratches.

Ive mine under a California car cover right now. Its got brand new paint and even after strong winds, there isnt one scratch on it. The only thing about it is that its not water proof. I wonder what would happen if you sprayed scotch guard (or a similar product) on it to repel water?

Of course I would spray the cover with the water repellent off the car and let it sit for awhile before putting it back on the car. GOOD IDEA!!

I have found two Noah covers. One is made by California and the other is made by Covercraft.

After research it looks like "Noah" is a material made by Kimberly Clark and several different companies make their covers out of it.
