Does your G70 have a spot in your garage or do you store it outside? I store mine outside because I have so much stuff in my garage at the moment.

I'm looking for a new car cover and I'm not sure which to go with. I'm leaning towards this one from Car Covers Factory since it's on sale but I'm open to any suggestions.

I would be concerned about a cover on a car outside. Any dirt on the car could act as an abrasive and scratch the heck out of the paint. The dirt from the earlier days could stay on the underside to scratch the car the next time. Any moisture could be trapped in encouraging mold or rust.

Sounds like a weekend project of cleaning the garage may be time well spent.

That's happened to me before and it's so frustrating. Even if you tie the cover down as tight as possible you can still get dirt or water trapped in there.

I store mine outside because I got it recently and in the garage, it's not enough room for two cars. I do have a car cover but I'm planning on reconstructing the garage. I had this on my mind for a while and I finally have time for this. The garage is an addition to the house so this won't be much of a big project. I got ordered some custom garage doors from https://www.advantagegd.com/okotoks-garage-door-repair and the rest of the materials we already have, so it shouldn't take a long time. I don't want to keep the car outside anymore, so I'm making room for it in the garage.

rebuilding the garage is definitely one way of fixing the problem. I hope construction goes smoothly for you. What's the other car you have along with your G70?

It spends most of the time in the garage, where it has a special spot. But I also have a good multilayered car cover for it because I sometimes have to leave it outside for a couple of days.
I recommend choosing a car cover that would be not only waterproof but also breathable to let all the moisture that’s beneath the cover out. If water builds up under the cover, it can cause rot and really harm your car. That’s why carefully choose only the qualitative canada car cover. You can also order a custom-tailored cover from them if you have some preferences.

I have a great car and I keep it in the garage and clean it without chemicals, just with a steamer so as not to damage the surface any further - so far, it's super. I chose the steamer for a long time - I wanted to buy an Optima steamer on sale, but I read a post from professionals on Do not buy the Optima steamer before reading this and thought about buying a different model. The Fortador Pro was the best fit for me.
