Looking for GT S car cover

As the title states, bought a GT S (edition 1 package) and will be needing a car cover for it. Question for you all, a) does anyone else with the edition 1 package have a recommendation towards a cover, and b) if there are used covers someone is looking to sell, pass it my way.

Thanks guys, excited to get the car here. Cheers.

When my friend bought a new

GT S the cover came with the car

Not sure if the Factory provided

it or the dealer provided it

He made sure that there was

no extra charge

O.P. - you should talk to your dealer


Thank-You
D.B.

The factory cover, if it is a Mercedes one, is for indoor use as a dust cover. Not meant for outdoors - it is thin and soft - no grommets, etc. Of course the dealer could have given a third party cover with the car...

You are correct

I called my friend and he said

the cover was in the trunk when

he took delivery - he asked and

was told it was an indoor cover only

and that all GT S's come with the

cover from the factory


I reminded him that this was in its

most basic format a car salesman

talking and he should check his

paperwork to see if he paid for it


Thank-You
D.B.

@Frank, I'm curious why you traded it in after only 500 miles?

Thank you for responses, I am checking with dealer as cover was definitely not in car and I also checked invoice, they did however provide a trickle charger which was in trunk.

As far as I know they all come with a trickle charger. Mine did 14 months ago.

After that same sticker shock, I picked up a Satin Stretch, indoor 'fits all GT/S' cover. Excellent cover with the caveat that it wasn't exactly designed with the wing in mind so the contour lines are slightly off. Still, for the money, a great choice.

I do however recommend ordering it in a single color to avoid accentuation of the lines as they get a bit distorted by the aero-kit wing. For a non-winged car, it's perfect and the various pattern choices will work seamlessly.

Any pics? I'd like to see how well it would fit with the wing. Looking at their site there are a few covercraft options - is yours the satin stretch model?

Yes, Satin Stretch (per my previous post). Cover is presently off, awaiting me to wash the car. Covers the entire car down to the floor just like their photo. More than does the job.

But they did such a great job of computer designing this to conform to the lines of the non-winged car that the wing just forces the panel seams in the rear quarter panel area to ride a tad high. As I said, great cover for the money and still looks near perfect.

Is the MB Ed1 version any better?

I found a Covercraft satin stretch made specifically for the wing from CarId.com

FWIW the cover gets all gritted up by tires and unfolding on car is precarious.
