Daily driver - 370z sits outside - car cover worth it?
So title says it all...
My car is ceramic coated - and it sits outside in Florida. I tend to wash it off every night with water ... Would a car cover be smart - or does it tend to leave scratches from particles? Thanks! |
If you wash the car properly before putting on the cover and the cover fits properly, you'll be better off with the cover. Otherwise, don't bother.

Then you have hurricane season, which ceramic coating will not protect from hail or a tree falling. I don’t believe in car covers, as I feel this will attract unwanted attention. Garage is your best bet. |

I know. :( Oh and Sarasota here :) |
If you're daily driving the Z a car cover will cause more paint damage than it prevents.
If its sitting in your driveway and gets taken out once a week or so, it could be a good investment. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk |

definitely... just get the dust off before putting on the car cover and leave the windows open a bit to keep the interior cooler.

Ugh, not en easy decision. I would look into somehow getting a car port or something. Sun kills the paint and with a cover no matter how diligent you are eventually wind will scratch up parts of it. Have you considered getting a wrap.

I'm looking into a car port, but they're so damn ugly. Trying to figure out the best solution - besides - 'get a garage' :) |

Ceramic coating is a great option and works. If you have a shop do your ceramic coating for you it is expensive unless you do it yourself. Unless you take good care of your paint regular washes,waxing,polishing etc. the sun will eventually begin to fade your clearcoat a specially in hot climates. I’ve repainted two of my Z’s before. Using a car cover on your Z is a double edged sword really. Parking your Z in a garage is truly your best option all together.
