This is probably a dumb question, but I've got a couple of car covers that I used for my departed Gen IV ACR, and was wondering if they might fit "close enough" to the Gen V that they could be usable. They used to fit pretty loosely around the wing of the Gen IV, so maybe they'll fit tightly around the Gen V wing?
I guess I'll find out soon - looks like the car will be here any day now. Just in time for a storm to hit...

It will fit a TA 2.0, but barely as the car seems bigger in places. I doubt it will fit a gen 5 ACR E, but give it a try.

Well, here's an update. My old Gen IV ACR covers do indeed fit the new ACR-E. It was a tight fit, but I put them on in the sun and let them stretch a bit. I'm glad because I like to have two covers on the car - one super soft cover underneath, and an "all weather" cover on the outside. It definitely helps with little garage accidents (like when my ski rack fell off the wall and landed on the hood of my Gen II). Also, while I'm building my new garage (ETA sometime at end of summer if the local inspectors sign off on everything in time), I need to leave the car outside. Having two covers on it (the top one being waterproof) is a good thing.
Now, I'm going to keep the factory cover in its factory bag for safe-keeping.
