    Does anyone here park their ferrari outdoors all the time with a cover on top? How well does the car cope with the elements?

    Mine stays outdoors, though with a carport roof and a fitted cover.

    No worries, but the other day at my girl's house a tree branch fell on it.

    6.5 new dents across the roof. OUCH!

    I leave the car all over the place w/o any covering, but at the office it's in a garage and at home it's in a garage.

    Are yout alking about permanent parking at home or on the go? If on the go, I really say don't bother with a cover...

    Out and about I agree there is no point. Im more interested in anyone who parks the car outside at home, with a cover on.

    Hmmm. This is exactly the reason I didn't buy one right now - no covered parking in my apt complex. That doesn't stop my neighbor with two 911's (a '70 and '85), another dude with a Z06, or the guy around the corner who keeps his 996TT parked on the street (THAT's crazy).

    But if you guys do it, then maybe I can... (grinding gear sounds in head).
