    i think you need to run an orange w/ the audis.
    the terminals are reversed
    Do you have a need for speed? Then drive it like you stole it!

    I have seen ppl use a yellow top, but that is because most places do not stock orange - only yellow.

    Our terminals ARE reversed, so you should get an orange...

    The @$145 killed it for me. I think the red top is $25 cheaper and most optima dealers don't list the orange top. "never heard of it". Sears sells em.

    umm... the orange one is not listed on optima's website

    just called my local Sears and they don't even have an Optima battery that would fit!
