I know this has been asked before but cant seem to find it in the searches.

what seems to be the best 818C car cover. I am looking for something that fits pretty snug more formed fitted. and not looking for custom made.

maybe a S2000 or lotus?

ideas?

Miata, possibly?

Miata or Lotus Elise are the closest. Since mine is still a project I went Miata since that was much cheaper. It fits okay, you definitely need straps to keep it in place if you put it outside in the wind.

Toyota MR2 will fit, perhaps a little loose. Motortrend covers are cost effective.

In building my 818S, I thought it wouldn’t do any harm to cut a 1x3 x 35” piece of pine and put 2 notches in it 33.5” apart. I used that to set my windshield at the right distance from the roll bar in case I ever wanted to get the soft top. I keep that piece of wood in my FFR trunk along with my Miata cover. I set it in place when I put the cover on so water won’t pool in the middle of the car between the windshield and the roll bar.
