Sorry the Search is not working - 1M Car Cover

I have tried searching but it seems to be dead at the moment.

To all who have bought the new 1M Outdoor car cover, how do you like it?

Thanks

I use mine indoors, but it's very well made. I like the M logos, though they are a bit flashy. It fits like a glove and is surprisingly light for the high quality feel it gives. So for, I am quite happy with it.

This is how I would use one as well. Looking to wash my car then cover in the Garage for the Winter. It looks like it fits the car perfectly.

Don't flame me but I bought one for my 135, really nice cover. Washed it, drove it home, wiped it down with some detail spray and tucked it in for the winter.

I just placed the order for my 1M car cover.

Hoping to solve the Dust problems from storing the car for long periods of time in the Garage. Always wash the car before using the cover!

I bought the 1 series cover the day I purchased my 1M. The 1M one wasn't out yet. It fits nice and snug. But obviously the M one looks nicer. However, I live in a building with a parking garage, so idk if I would like drawing all 'M' attention to it. In fact, the only reason I bought the cover was so that people wouldn't know its a 1M and do something to it or what not...

To everyone who has purchased this cover can you please give more detail about the thickness/perceived "ding" protection and softness of the inside. I will use it for indoor protection only over the winter and I am struggling with the choice between this and a multilayer "like dustop". Trying to protect the M against my wife and daughter who have a tendency to put things on cars as they get in and out of theirs. I have a "dustop" on the M3 and it has worked well but I really like the looks of the 1M black cover ......

Thanks All!
