For your age (brings up the price), this is the cheapest (3 levels from the bottom)

If your credit card insures you, you are good.
Don't know about other sites.
In this case it's included.
Thank you, best price around!
Worked out perfectly.

I'm looking for a rental from Milan Bergamo on April 9 at 5 pm, to be returned in Venice Mestre on April 12 at 5 pm. Smallest automatic car. My Amex Plat will cover CDW. I'm 23 years old.

All the prices that I'm seeing are approx $220 before underage fees. Does anyone know of a cheaper option? Thanks!!

On the search result page, click Edit and choose a European country.
You will have the second smallest car for $185.
Change to India and for some $20 extra you have a nice car.

$113.97 if you change the country to Brazil for a decent sized car.

Thanks. You mean the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer when you say a nicer car for $20 more?

You will see, it's usually based on area + type of population

Let's say in the USA, I've had different results and not always the same country  was the cheapest. For example India and another time Brazil.

Thanks! A couple questions:
1. I see the price includes CDW. Any way to decline that, as I think taking it goods my cc's CDW which has no deductible, compared with the rental car company's CDW, which prob has a high deductible?
2. I don't see anything about LDW. Included?
3. Which car do you suggest? The 2 Series category or the insignia (totally unfamiliar with the cars there like insignia).

I'm not sure, but I assume you can waive the insurance (you could call the branch and ask).
Most European countries by law include this basic insurance, also this you should ask.
(Please let us know what they say)
I believe the insignia is better.
In case you see on your contract that weird country, feel free to act all surprised, and ask them to "rectify".
So you have your regular address and phone number, only the country is exotic.

I'm seeing significantly cheaper prices (like $73) if I use Hong Kong. Any reason not to?

Sure do.
But call to inquire.
