My dealer ordered GT350 came with the Shelby cover - does anyone actually use it? The car will be garage kept but are there other circumstances (say travel) where people put it on? Wondering if I should just leave it in the box - have no intentions of ever selling this car right now but there's always the future possibility of trading for something else, like a GT500...

I have a softer and thicker one for the garage, use the factory one outside if car is sitting in the elements for any prolonged time.

Mine came with one as well. I use it in the winter inside the garage. I would hang on to it even if you don't use it. Although I don't know why you wouldn't want to.

I put it on when storing the car in the garage for more than a day or two. Mostly as an added layer of protection against kids, dogs and anything else that may wander thru the garage and brush against / bump into the car.

I do get funny looks from the dealer when I mention the cover is in the trunk if they need it tho. A look like 'What part of we are going to keep it inside do you not understand Mr Customer?' :lol:

I have a carport. After driving my Shelby around town I wipe the windows with an Absorber and wipe it down with a California Duster and then put the cover that came with car on it. Did it with the 2016 I had for a year and have been doing it for months with my 2017. Works great. Every one thinks I wash and wax the car all the time. Sometimes during dry season I may go for a few weeks before I even wash the car.

I've used mine twice in two years. I feel like the car has to be spotless (which is rare) in order to use it.

Haven't used mine yet, still afraid it will just scratch up the stripes.

Took mine out of the box and looked at it, and put it back in the box and up on a shelf.

It wont as long as the car is not dirty. Mine never has. Your going to get fine scratches visible in direct sun light no matter how careful you are cleaning car. Was more noticeable when sun directly hit the black stripes on my 2017 than the blue stripes on my 2017.
