If its indoors and not in the
weather you should go with a
felt padded cover. They are
very nice and easy on the paint.

If your looking at a nice cover you might think of going with a Coverking Satin Snug fit. We sell them all day long for 225.00 comes with a logo and a storage bag.

Also depends on if your in a 2 or 3 car garage and worried about the kids getting out of the other car and opening the door onto the vet. Then I would say go with something thicker like the AutoBody Armor. This would protect from dings.

Again just depends on the look and what your going for.

If you want a cover that can be used to protect the car from the outside elements from time to time, I recommend the Noah fabric. I have a Wolf Noah cover. It is soft and has some level of padding that helps protect the car from others. The Noah fabric is used by several car cover manufacturers. :thumbsup:

Corvette America has lots of covers. Members of our club have orders tons of the soft flannel covers that are manufactured by Corvette America. These are resonably priced and come in tan or grey.

Hi,

I am looking into buying a cover for my vett there are lots out there that range from $75.00 to $400.00 dollars need your help and opinion on what to buy i will keep it in my garage in the winter.

thanks.

I purchased a cover from the Corvette Museum last fall. They range in price from $95 to $285. I purchased the $95 model. I store my C5 in the garage all winter and the cover worked great. The thing I like best about the cover is how good it fits on the car. Also the cover is flannel lined to help protect scratching the paint. :party:

I found the link to the page for you.
