None of the above. They are of poor quality and you dont want a waterproof cover (traps mositure). Picture of a quality Stormguard cover made for a 3rd gen car. I have had this cover for 14 yrs and use it every day.

I have the NOAH cover the I purchased through summit racing for $169, I have heard alot of good things about it but haven't had a chance to use it yet. It has a flannel lining and the whole cover is supposed to "breathe" so it won't trap moisture and was said above, and they can be used outside.

I bought the same for my '02 T/A. It's a great cover! I will be getting one for the '83 soon.
