Ok, who has 05 specific ones and where did you get them? I can't find it on ford's site, and I tried carcoverworld.com and while nice, I'd like the official Ford one ... anyone have a link?

Just as an aside - I got mine (NOAH version) from car cover world and am MORE than happy with it - fits absolutely perfect, VERY well made, and you get the tie down cable and lock and carry bag for free - $179.

The comparable one from FORD is $254 on the accessories site......

Item: Custom Fit; Car Cover; 2 Mirror Pockets; Size G3; WeatherShield; Gray;
Fits: 2005 FORD MUSTANG GT $218.97

From ajusa.com

i searched all over and they def. had the best prices. See the following pics. Its real light weight and folds up real small, i also got the cable lock and bag for it. Came in a couple days. They threw in the antennae grommet for free, but i had to place it and put in myself.

So does having the NOAH mean that if I cover the car and it rains all day, I can uncover the car and it will be completely dry?

I'm guessing the weathershield cover has NOAH too, but to answer your question, thats how its supposed to work, yes.

It looks as if the Weathershield has better fabric than Noah. This is from the AJUSA site. Check out the ratings. Weathershield has 5 for rain. Noah has 4. Otherwise they're equal. Both rated best for outdoors. The fabric reminds me of what my columbia coat is made out of.

I've bought three car covers from Big Sky. They are all Covercraft Evolution custom made for my three Corvettes. All are four-layer and provide lots of protection from scratches. They breathe so the car won't stay wet although, if it rains hard the water will penetrate. Also, if they get dirty some dust will wash through. One is gray, one blue and one tan. They all fit fine.

They have the above fabric and others such as interior storage cloth. I use my Evolution covers in the garage to protect the finishes and they are fine for that.

Big Sky is available as follows:

http://www.bigskycarcovers.com/catalog/index.asp

I looked it up today and they have the above cover for the 2005 Mustang at just over $140.00. I haven't ordered one for my 2005 stang yet but will order the above cover, when I do.

I bought a cover and there was a warning about new paint and letting the paint "cure". I have heard lots of different theories on this. Since for now I am storing inside I am holding off on using the cover at least for a coupe more months. Anyone else have "warnings" about new paint with their car covers?

You can see the one that I got from ford. Go to www.harleybill.com and click on mustang fever link. Front and back pictures are there. It cost me about 185.00 (they will deal down from what they ask).. I think it was about 205.00 retail. Hope this helps.
