A bit of a blow considering I was willing to pay up to $450 a month on the car loan itself(trying to pay down in 3-4 years). Just seeing an insurance payment of nearly half (or even more) of the loan itself just rubs me the wrong way. The way I look at it I'll basically be paying $31,000 for everything in the long run with insurance included by the time it is paid off, not to mention insurance payments thereafter.

Is $250/month even in the ballpark of what most brz/fr-s owners pay on insurance?
Is there a general round figure for how much insurance should cost vs. the cost of the car?

Thanks
