You might check out CarCovers.com. I picked up their Platinum Shield outdoor cover for my M8, even though it's inside. It is polyester and is fleece lined. These do not have mirror pockets though, which is what I wanted. In my experience the first wear and tear starts at the mirror pockets. Plus I like the setting on my car that unlocks/locks when approached/walk away with a fob and that also folds the mirrors in/out automatically. So no mirror pockets for me. Reasonable price. Supposed lifetime warranty.

Finding a good car cover can be tricky, especially with so many options out there. I’ve been through a few and learned that knowing how to choose the right RV cover makes a huge difference. Look for something breathable to prevent moisture buildup, and make sure it has a snug fit to avoid flapping in the wind. UV protection is also key if you’re keeping it outside for long periods.

I have some all cotton California car covers that are over 25 years old. Also Beverly Hills Motoring accesories cover that are even older. Can go wrong with them. I use an OEM Z4 cover for mine indoors. Mirror pockets and very lightweight
