Covers that look like the original style are available on the Ferrari owners site. Listed for 230 Euros, which is not bad.

These covers, like the original, are only useful for indoors. I use a WeatherShield outer cover for the rare times when the car is left outside. For this I found the best deal for a decent cover at BigSkyCarCovers.com, who resell ones made by CoverCraft.

Frank....you might also want to try contacting H.J. Foster / Richbrook Intl. at [email protected].

Ask him to e-mail / fax you info. on the covers. He can help you with the Rosso Red covers w/ fleece backing and black logo, ripstop nylon bag, steering wheel cover, seat overcovers (all in red, etc.) for a lot less than the dealer quote.

Another F-Chat member (Frank Parker?) purchased a cover from them and was very satisfied.

I plan on purchasing a set for both cars in the near future to keep in the trunks. For now, I'm using the tan flannel variety from Griots while parked in the garage.

Yes, the dealer quoted me around $800 also for a 308 cover w/ bag.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you need their fax #, and I'll send it your way.

Just thought I'd throw this out as another alternative.

www.covercar.it

This is who Ferrari gets their covers from. I ordered one, took about 2 months to get, has the Ferrari logo and name on the hood portion of the cover.

It won't come in the Ferrari logo'd duffle bag, but you're buying a cover not a duffle bag. Cost me about $300

Do you want the red indoor car cover w/logo that came with the car, or an outdoor cover?

Griot's Garage has many nice covers, custom-fit, don't know about the logos. I have one for my 328 that works great.

I've fallen off my chair and can't get up. Shelton wants $860 for a 355 car cover!

Anybody got a lead where to get F Logo car covers?

There's a guy in FerrariAds that's in TX but has not replied to my e-mail.

Yes, I know these cars are meant to be driven and I drive mine nearly every day, but I'm getting ready for a major concours event.
