Hi,

I too have a couple of Noah custom car covers for both my Esprit and my 240Z. These cars are not stored outdoors, so it's maybe a little overkill. They do not scratch the cars whatever.

After 13 and 11 yrs. respectively, each has been washed several times in a commercial machine (but using only mild soap) and then air dried and these covers have held up great. It's a really good synthetic fabric and I would recommend them.

The reason I have the silverguard cover on the Boxster is that it was much less expensive than any custom aftermarket Noah covers I could find...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

Garage
I use a total cheapie. About $30 at Wal Mart. It has been on when the car is garaged for 2 yrs and though a little tattered still keeps the car clean. I have not noticed any fine scratches from contact but I am not a concourse guy.

Jim, your garage looks an awful lot like mine right now.

I bought mine from California Car Cover and it fits like a "glove". It really is just a dust cover but is stretchy and fits well, Only thing is I bought a red one to match the car and it left a red "fuzz" on the convertible top... I put it through the washer once and it solved that problem. I got the fuzz off the top with a sticky lint remover roller. I'm happy with the product.

I have a flannel lined from Cover King. It leaves a lot of lint on my black top, but it's no big deal. It only goes on the car during winter storage.
