I bought a fairly cheap small car cover for my S2000. The car is mostly park in garage, but still collect dust overtime. Searching online and went to Walmart, Pep Boys, Autozone and O'Reilly to check the price and quality of the material.

I settled for Coverking 170" universal fit cover from Amazon for $14.20. I received today, put it on S2000 and it is perfect fit. I think the fabric quality is about the same as Pep Boys $5x cover. The color is light gray but the cheap camera with flash has it light blue.

The fabric is fairly thick, with elastic bands on front and rear. It cover the S2000 completely, almost down to ground with only 2" clearance. I think it is not water proof so it is not for outdoor use, especially where you may have rain year round. It may be use outdoor in So Cal in summer because we rarely have any rain from May till Nov.

I wonder if it's the same cover as the Budge Lite I bought from Walmart? Definitely works for me!

My local Walmart has 2 brands, one is $2x and the other is $3x(probably Budge Lite). The boxes were sealed so I didn't open any.

I didn't expect much from a $14 cover, and I was a little surprise to see a better quality cover and it fits my S2000 very well.

The cover is single layer fabric, inside is a little softer than outside and outside isn't very rough either. There is no wind in garage so the cover won't move to rub against the car.

I think for $14.20 this cover is worth every dollar to keep the car clean of dirt/dust, especially for in-garage use. If you have a small car that rarely driven then $14 for this cover is money well spent.
