Outdoor Car Cover

[wardlws]

I bought an Outdoor Car Cover from Coverland: Cadillac Xlr Car Cover │ 10-Year Warranty │ Custom Fit │ 100% Weatherproof

It does the job of keeping the rain and sun off the car, but I'm not very happy with it.

Pros:
Great UV and Rain protection
Venting to let out any trapped moisture

Cons:
Mirror pockets are too far forward (probably meant to fit c6 corvette as well)
Wind will blow off the front (not tall enough to tuck far enough under the bumper cover)
High static electricity, which has shocked me over 5 inches through my shoe... can damage antennas and electronics
Doesn't fit great and seems to rub at the top corners when pulling it tight
Bulky when packed up... the bag is about 2 cubic feet; making it too big to keep in the car
Zipper on the driver door (afraid it will scratch the paint some day)

Does anyone have a recommendation for an outdoor cover that fits good and doesn't throw static electricity lightning bolts?

This Coverland car cover only lasted 6 months! Do not ever buy a Coverland cover! I probably only took it on/off maybe a couple dozen times in the six months, and it just started deteriorating and shredding apart. Total waste of money.

Since I don't have enough garage spaces for the XLR, I did a ton more research, and decided to go with a Covercraft car cover. It has been about a month, and I'm pretty happy so far.

Pros:
Good UV and Rain protection
Thin and fits into a small bag
Great fit and easily glides into place

Cons:
Probably won't be water tight forever

I'll let you know how it goes.
