Indoor cover for Cayman

Can anyone recommend an indoor car cover for the Cayman? So far I looked at the Porsche covers but it cost $240-300. It's nice & all but I don't think it worth it for a indoor dust cover while the car is in the garage. TIA

I have the Porsche indoor cover. It's awsome, very well made. Worth the price IMO.

Several years ago I had an indoor cover made by California Car Cover when I had my Boxster. I can't remember which one it was but it was a well made cover and not too expensive.

I have been looking at the Porsche cover for the Cayman. Suncoast Porsche's price doesn't seem too high.

CoverKing You can find it at various retailers, I found them very easy to store, and put on the car. It is made of satin, just like ladies underwear

Cover King (Car Cover, Seat Covers, Dash Cover, Floormats, Sunshields - Manufactured by Coverking) is the way to go.

Has anyone found the Cover King at a price that matchs the OP's limit? I'd be interested also.

I have a nice cover for sale

I had a 350Z and sold it to but my Porsche Boxster. I also had this Covercraft Form Fit Car Cover specifically designed for a Nissan 350 Z Coupe. I tried it on my Boxster and it fit great but since the inside is a plush cotton, it left lint on my convertable top. Since we don't have kids at home, I only used it a few times. It is for indoor use. New it cost $349. I am selling it for $150. Comes with cover bag. Please email me at 311rbc@gmail.com or you can PM. I can send you pictures if you like. I am located in raleigh, NC.

Here is a description from Covercraft:

Covercrafts most LUXURIOUS indoor cover... Covercraft's new Form-Fit covers provide a body-hugging fit AND a super soft inside to pamper fine paint finishes. Information from their site: We start with an outer shell of woven polyester that has Lycra/Spandex® added to the yarns to provide STRETCH and memory - the stretch provides the body-hugging fit and the memory assures the cover will retain its shape over an extended period of time (they have a 4-year warranty). The inside fibers are 100% cotton terry loop which is sheared to a fleece-like finish. The end result is a 7.4 oz sq. yd. material that has a great "hand", or feel. This cover will provide some ding & dent protection for a garage parked vehicle and the fabric is highly breathable to prevent vapor and heat from becoming trapped under the cover. Covers are supplied complete with a matching fabric storage bag.


Thanks
