I bought mine from CaliforniaCarCover.com

It is awesome. I leave my car outside in a big parking lot, and even after a huge rain, the water just runs off this thing. Its a little pricey, but a great investment in protecting your car. Like I said, I love mine.

I have a normal car cover, but if I can't get the car in the garage for whatever reason I want to have some protection from the rain.

You do not want a waterproof cover. Condensation would form under the cover and it would always be wet. Not even sure if such a thing is made.

I have the $200 Nissan cover. This is my second Nissan cover. Very pleased.

I have the Wolf car cover in the "Block it Evolution" fabric.

It's not waterproof, but will keep the water out.

Mine is always dry, but maybe water-repellent is a better word.
