Is it a 'waterproof' cover?  If so you could put a thin cotton cover on =
first to reduce the problem, but with a GT I'd question why one is =
needed.  I had my V8 under a borrowed 'breathable' cover for a while but =
it just trapped dampness after everything else had dried up, it would =
take much much longer to dry out underneath.  I wouldn't even use one =
for a roadster, the fully waterproof cockpit cover I have is better.

Mike, 

First, which cover did you purchase? It looks like it the coating is coming apart. I would call the Carcovers.

I have never had a cover deteriorate that fast. But they will eventually =
break down in sunlight. Also, the cotton covers will collect dust which =
slowly works its way through the weave onto your car. So even if the =
cover isn=E2=80=99t creating powder, the car still will get dusty.

They make silver reflective covers that are more sun resistant than the =
soft cotton ones, and which don=E2=80=99t let dust settle through. =
Regardless, you will be surprised how dirty the car looks when you take =
the cover off.
