I'll have to read the details closer. btw, I'm assuming the car has to be dry before you put the cover on? I mostly want to use it for the winter and usually use the touchless spray at the car wash, but don't always dry it, esp. if its cold out.

No elastic at the bottom but it fits fine because it was costumed made. Covers that have elastic at the bottom are made for more than one kind of vehicle.....like the covers you see in Wal-Mart. Yes, it is pricey but worth every penny. Remember when you go to purchase one, make sure it has a warranty for at least 3 years, if not don't buy it. As with most items, "you get what you pay for." Yes, you car needs to be dry and clean each time the cover is put on.

I wonder if it would stay on during strong winds without the elastic? I could see spending around 100 or so if I could find a decent one. But IDK, if I'm going to spend around 200 for a cover I might as well save my money and get a carport in the spring. I believe I could get one of those for around 695. Of course that won't help out this winter, although it hasn't been bad yet.
