After 13 years of Boxster ownership, and not having a garage, we have gone through a few car covers.
Our latest is the NOAH cover from Covercraft....full write-up here:

Thanks for the writeup. I've had a Cover Craft Evolution that I've used since 2006. It doesn't take near the beating yours does since I only put it on in the garage during winter storage. It fit my 987 very well, including the mirror pockets. I decided to keep it and am using it on my 981. It's a bit tight and you can only get one side mirror into a pocket, but it keeps the dust off for the 4 months. It still looks like new with no wear spots.

| Agreed. Very disappointed in the durability of second OEM cover. RainyDayGarage - Sunday, 26 January, 2014, at 8:33:09 am |
With regards to our second OEM silver cover, both the seam AND the fabric were sub-par.
The seams came apart (which we can fix), but the material itself disintegrated...which we could not fix when the rips got too large:

| Update on the Covercraft car cover ...nice even in heavy wet snow RainyDayGarage - Thursday, 6 February, 2014, at 2:35:55 pm |
A few storms past through New England this week...gave the new Covercraft cover a nice workout.
We are happy to report that it passed with flying colors.
The cover kept the moisture off the car, did NOT freeze onto it, and lifted off cleanly even when crusted over.
About 10" of snow of varying wetness (wet/heavy - light and fluffy) fell onto the cover over the course of 10 hours on Tuesday.
After pushing off the layer of snow, there was a nice crust still on the cover.
Lifting the cover revealed that no moisture had seeped underneath to freeze it onto the car...which had been a problem with the OEM cover. NICE!
