Car Cover - Which to buy?

I don't have a garage, or carport. So guess where the Xfire sits, --- yes outside. I drive it daily and take good car of the car, wash, wax etc.

I do have other cars that aren't being driven due to my recent Xfire purchase and they are feeling neglected.

So I want to know from your experience which is the best car cover to purchase for the Xfire? Can I cover the car dirty and not have nightmares about the cover grinding the dirt into my paint?

**I did a search on every variation of words looking for advice on a car cover, but I couldn't find anything useful.

Thanks in advance.

Don

Re: Car Cover - Which to buy?

I also have a Covercraft cover. I bought it for my first PT Cruiser. Since I'm cheap I tried it on the Crossfire and it fits in all the right places so I didn't see the need to spend another 150 bucks.
Mine has a locking cable to keep my son from my car while I'm on vacation.
Covercraft has several different grades of covers. The one I have is water resistant and it "breaths" so moisture is not trapped under it.
