C6 2006 Battery Replacement
I need a new battery for my 2006 corvette coupe. Optima is stating they no longer carry a redtop that will fit my car. Any suggestions?
Thank you in advance.

Thank you Brandon & Sallen - I went to Optimabattery.com did a search for my car and they came up with nothing. Should I just attempt a yellow top or go to a dealer? I have a C6, 2006 Coupe (v8-6L)

There are so many options, and any top of the line battery made for your car, of most brands will do you well.
I had the original AC Delco in my 2006, next one was a Yellow Top Optima, and my latest going on 4 years is a local auto parts top line battery. I keep them on battery tenders during the winter hibernation period.
I did a search for the Optima and the only one that is listed is for a 2005 Corvette with the LS2
Red Top 8025-160 25
Good Luck in whatever brand that you decide to buy.

I prefer a standard battery like AC Delco, Duralast, Die Hard. If you have to have an Optima it's here.
