Z4 Frozen Grey car cover options

I’m buying a cpo 2022 and don’t have garage space. I plan to park it outside but would prefer to cover it after every drive. I’ve been reading lots of stories about the frozen paint but it’s hard to sort fact from fiction and I’d love to hear fresh takes on my options.

Don't put the cover back on it unless you've washed it. Dirt gets trapped between and every breeze causes that dirt to get abraded between the cover and your nice Frozen Grey paint that can't be polished to remove scratches unless you want to make it gloss!

Putting a cover on after each time you drive it gets old. Might want to look into erecting a car port of some sort. You could put one in a basic one for around $2,000. I will cost more if you want a concrete pad or a more fancy one.

Going slightly off topic, I strongly recommend that you invest in a Stealth PPF when you own a frozen color like this. BMW does not sell touchup paint for it.
