Rental car in Turkey?

I wasn't sure if this should go here or car rental forum, but what the heck: Some friends and I will be staying in Istanbul later this year, and in the interest of seeing Ephesus, we're thinking of flying to Izmir for the day. Then we'd rent a car at ADB and drive to Ephesus.

However, I just confirmed that my US car insurance does not cover me at all outside of North America -- so, what are the insurance options that would be needed for Turkey? I was thinking that with 4 of us, renting a car is more cost-effective than trying to bus it from the airport to Ephesus, but if the rental fees and insurance costs are sky-high, then we may rethink our plans.

Thanks!
