I picked mine up at carcovers.com for my 235. They have interior and exterior covers and pretty decent prices.

I picked up my Sunbrella car cover at Covercraft. I was told by one of their designers that they extended the fabric of their M235 cover for the M2. As I won't actually have my M2 until late this week, I don't yet know how well it fits. The fabric feels rugged, so I expect it will hold up outdoors.
If Covercraft doesn't yet list the M2 as one of their models, you can call them. Kathy Bean from their sales team helped me out, but my guess is other sales consultants can help as well. |

My Car Cover Experience
Many types of covers for different needs and uses. I keep my cars covered most of the time. Just makes it easier to get in and drive as I am a little OCD when it comes to my cars. Although my DD is a mess.
Ideally, you want a cover that is soft against the paint but these usually will allow dust to make it through the cover over time and are useless for outdoor use. Outdoor covers are rough against the paint and under windy conditions can do damage or get blown away. I keep my Boxster covered outdoors using a factory cover and it does help keep it clean and free of pollen but under extremely stormy conditions will flutter and can mark the paint if not properly tightened. IMO for long term indoor storage, the ideal cover is flannel-lined indoor cover covered by a breathable dust cover. This will keep the flannel cover from being saturated with dust and the car free of any scratches and always looking clean. Also, a big mistake people make is balling up the cover and leaving it around to get dirty. Properly folding the cover and storing it is important to preventing debris from getting on the inside and doing damage. However, I have found the below article most useful and informative. You can read recent top 10 brand reviews, pros, and cons. Hope it will help you. https://www.autolovins.com/best-car-...r-extreme-sun/ Last edited by reedcooper; 12-23-2020 at 10:49 PM..
