I was going to say the exact same thing, they buy bulk rejects and sell them for nothing.

I just happen to be an Optima dealer lol

PM me for pricing and I'll install it for love.

yup.. got one in my TL.. yellowtop/bluetop DC rule!! you get starting power + deep cycle for electronics.. unless your starting in real low temps or got a v8/custom engine .... redtop is not worth it...yellowtop has just a few less CCAs and can provide a lot more for ppl who park and leave their stereo on, heated seats, headlights, etc..

Does anyone know the part number they used for the Optima red top? Is it the 35-series? That's what Performance Improvements told me and they said it's an unusual battery size. But I would've figured an Infiniti/Nissan would be a fairly common battery size, no?
