I just purchased a BRE cover. It will be my first "real" car cover so I will post here with my experience.

In case anyone is shopping around for one. Had this cover for about a year now and I love it. Fit is a little loose but that makes it a breeze to put on and take off. I love the look and feel of the fabric, highly recommended.

I don't have much to compare this BRE cover to. Is it supposed to hug the tires tightly? Is that "good"?

Yep I pull mine down right to the dirt/asphalt/concrete on all four tires.

It looks like it may fit my high windshield better than the low. I see it's still available. Do you recommend it now that you have owned it for a few years?

Try Covercraft Outlet, www.covercraftoutlet.com for good prices on Covercraft seconds, and also the Wolf brand covers.
You can get a universal fit cover or just pick one the approx size of the Roadster.
This one is the NOAH fabric, thicker and good for rain.

Hi Michael,
Time does fly by! Looks like the cover is 3 years old now. I would recommend it. I don't have much to compare it to, but it has kept the car dust free whenever I remove it...inside the garage or outside on the driveway.
