I've bought a few covers from this place, they sell only top quality covers and have them cut to perfectly fit the thirdgen. Look at the comparison chart for which model best fits your needs - interior storage, heavy weather, light weather, etc.

Re: Car covers?
Shop a bit more carefully: both places use the exact same materials for all their car covers and neither place makes that material. In my experience, once you include shipping costs, carcoverworld is the winner.
Take the Noah cover for example (first off, the fact that both places are using the same name for the same cover, and they're both custom fit to the car, should tell you it's the exact same thing!!!!). At carcoverworld it's $198.95 with free shipping, at calcarcover it's $229.99 + $13.99 shipping for a total of $243.98. You guys like paying extra for the name??????? I can also tell you from personal experience that customer service at carcoverworld is top notch: I needed to get a cover as a gift so I called them to see about rush shipping - they got it out same day and still didn't charge me for shipping. This is the ONLY place I'll ever buy a cover from again.

Re: Car covers?
Might I suggest Hugger covers. They have a really nice tight fit with pockets for the mirrors.
I have a Wolf (evolution 4) and I like the cover but is fits loose and requires a cable underneath to secure the cover from blowing away. If you are storing the car inside no big deal but outside is a different story.
If I had to do it over I would go with the Hugger cover. They are not cheap but it will last decades!!

Re: Car covers?
Well, like I said, I can't say anything bad about carcoverworld. Sometimes I'll do the homework and the research and realize the big name isn't always the best. Sometimes you just go with what you know, in this case, California Car cover.
