I've never had any reason to regret my decision in the past 15 months of ownership, and I absolutely love driving it.
I had a Yellow top optima installed for my subaru around 2015, it lasted until just today - held out well
As an owner of a 2016 model S (bought new) with 228k miles on it, still on original battery with a range reduction of less than 15% compared to new.
Just replaced mine in my model 3, it lasted about 4.5 years before I get the alert on my app. Had it replaced in less than 20 minutes via mobile service in the app (there was already a tech in the area).
Maybe last year I got a letter from Subaru Canada saying the battery was being recalled and I could get a replacement.
…After I had already replaced it with an Optima Yellow Top.
I run the red top. I haven't noticed any issues except it doesn't fit the stock tray.
I bought an optima just because it and it's custom hold down looked cool. Unfortunately I let it sit with no tender for over a year and it discharged almost completely. I've been able to nurse it back and it is functioning at this time, but not sure it will hold a charge. We will see. I'm happy with it otherwise.
All since lifespan has been 2-3 years. I only sell them at customer request…
Bought a yellow-top that only lasted 3 years.
I went through 3 red tops within 2 years because of bad cells.
