I have not seen any place that sell this, not even ebay.
The only thing I can think of is get other car model and mod it to fit yours.
That is what I did for my smart 42
why would you cover it, the car is so sexy and nice.
I suppose if you go on holiday need to cover it.

Doing some research on this. Each model from BMW has its own specific car cover, indoor and outdoor. Im covering it because i dont want to drive my baby in the winter and get that shitty salt all over it. 370$ bucks CAN from my BMW dealer for an M5 form fitting cover. Eiik

I got a cover for my E60 from Empire Covers. They give ratings for all their covers for how well it protects the car in four different categories, including sun. And there are always coupon codes floating around for that site.

Not sure if you want to go to the trouble of covering the whole car every time you park though. I think the sunshade would be a lot easier.
