A shout out to my fellow leaky Targa owners
Found a car cover for the endless storms we've had here in Texas this winter (most I've seen in years). Totally waterproof, snow proof (as you can see) and very breathable. Best part, it's $50. Just thought those out there like me (no garage, leaky car, lots of rain) would like to know there's something out there that works and is cheap--normally two mutually exclusive traits in the Porsche world. If you get one, know that on the box it says the 911 takes a "C" size cover, which is what I got, but it's really big. Could probably go with the "B" size no problem, even if you had a normal Carrera tail.

Ty,
That cover is great to keep the elements from coming in, but you should be concerned with fit. The wind moving that cover around can rub on your painted surfaces. The extra space also leaves plenty of room for condensation. I would recommend taking in the slack with some bungees. And if your going to use it long term, take it off and air it out every few weeks as mold can grow inside your car if left unventilated. Good Luck, Shane

Yes, I can definitely attest to the growth of mold. It will happen and it won't be pretty.
