Which car cover for outside use?

Any reccomendations here? My GTA must spend the winter outside, and i am looking for a decently priced, good cover. I was looking into the one Car Motorsports sells, but seemed kinda expensive. There was an AutoCraft one on ebay or lie 65 bucks, but didnt know if it was any good. Just want something that is breathable, and wont scratch my paint. Any help here would be great. Thanks.

Take a look at California Car Cover www.calcarcover.com
for a custom fit cover for your GTA any model year. Compare material for your situation. May be expensive but better then the cheap one size fits all with a cheap fabric. I bought one 14yrs ago and it still looks new.

I read somewhere that you want a cover that is both water-proof AND breathable. Evidently some are not.

I deal with the Evolution Car cover that Classic Industries sells they are $139 & I have owned mine for 3yrs now & love it.

As a matter of fact we have 3 for the Camaros & just bought one for my husbands 67 Pick up
