I have a perfect driving record and Geico wanted to charge me double what Mercury is currently charging.

I think might be both, however check with different insurance companies.

Yeah, rates vary so much between insurance companies. I'm 25 and with State Farm, my rate is "only" $450 /6 months. There are definitely decent rates to be found. (Although I do think insurance is a total ripoff.)

also, increase your deductible. going from $500 deductible to $1000 deductible will save you around 25% in your premium cost (most of the time)

i'm not sure how i feel about that. i had my wheels stolen less than a month after i got my car. paying the 500 deductible wasn't very fun. 1000 feel any better. damn, geico is rippoff

my freaking altima coupe 2.5s was 1100 for 6 months.

do the math...

$2600 / year

$1950 / year with $1000 deductible

so long as you dont get your wheels stolen more than once every 2 years, $1000 deductible pays off
