Looking at buying a car cover to store my celica for the winter. Just wondering if there are any superior brands or brands I should stay away from. And where to buy online in Canada? ANd what price range should I be looking at for a quality one?

thanks guys.

^^Not necessarily. Some of them scratch the paint. Anyways there are 2 good sites to get car covers. However neither is in Canada.

Shear Comfort in Vancouver, BC. Just found this place recently.

I bought one of those Canadian Tire ones before. Left scratches on the rear bumper.

Car must be clean or you'll get scratches regardless of the brand.

I'm a little leery about trapping moisture underneath there. I just spent all last winter doing bodywork on it and I'd rather not leave a haven for rust on my car all winter. Even the crappy tire ones claim to allow moisture out sufficiently but I just don't want to experiment with a car I've put so much work into.



On second thought I might b e better off making a lean to with sides to keep the snow off and still allow air to circulate around it. :dunno:
