smart dealers carry the official version. There are others out there if you use Google and look on eBay.

Haven't seen the official cover but your smart center can give you the details. Ordered this one from eBay:

eBay Motors: Smart Car Fortwo Outdoor Breathable Fitted Car Cover (item 140251255522 end time Jul-23-08 10:15:52 PDT)

Good fit and has held up well so far.

thank you

Thanks for the info,bought one per your advice from ebay. Oh the reason for the cover is people keep walking up my carport and checking out the car,some even check if the doors are open can't see out the windows with all the hand and face marks.

We sell the same cover and keep it in stock for quick shipment:

Voyager Lightweight cover Smart Car Fortwo 451

If you are looking for something better we also offer a 4 layer outdoor cover:

Stormforce 4 layer cover SmartCar Fortwo 451

...and lastly we are introducing a custom two tone cover for the Smart in the next 48 hours. Here is a preview (more details to come in by the weekend):

Two Tone Smart Car Cover

Thank you.... :-)

Try California Pop Top. It covers only half the smart and is easier to get on and off. Their website proclaims that their product holds up in all kinds of weather. Their website does not show one yet, but you can email the owner, he responds very quickly or you can get one off eBay - that's the way I got mine.

PM Nscaler he bought one. I don't have a link for their website - but it's easy enough to google.

It's almost here!

I happened into Cal PopTop yesterday...looks like what I just might need to keep the light snow and frost off the car in the winter. here's a backdoor link that was emailed yesterday upon my inquiry to the website.

California Car Cover.

We have used lots of car covers and this one is by far the very best.

Big bucks, not cheap @ $245. Ice and snow just slides off. California Car Cover Company - Find a Cover
