Default Good car canopy?

I just bought my SRT replacement car (a 2002 Lingenfelter Corvette Z06) and the guy i bought it from was EXTREMELY anal retentive with taking care of it. I'm trying to be the same way with it as he was and i figure a good start is a car canopy (even though the car came with a nice cover) since i don't have a garage. I have seen a few online (some expensive and some cheap) and really don't know where to start. Just wondering if anyone has experience on what's a good canopy and what's not. My main worry is getting one and wind picking it up and slamming it against my car. Thanks in advance!

i got a cheap one for around 400 outta pvc pipe. I used railroad ties with offset heads, basically hammered all 4 corners into the ground then for effect got couple bags of sand in random places inside the canopy for the win. i live in florida and storm winds reached 40 mph and held up just fine, no swaying or anything.
