I've had it for three years and not a lick of problems.
Yellow or Red Optima™?

Red.

I dug into my purchase and remembered that for some reason, I didn't have to pay a core charge, so I ended up taking the old battery to Auto Zoned-out and got money for the core. Cha-ching!!
I just checked their site and if you do the old online sign-up, they give you 20% off of your first online purchase. They also now have a $20 core charge.

I bought my first Red Optima from Optima's site a few years ago and paid $150 shipped.

Like everything else, the prices seem to have gone up quite a bit. Black Friday is a good time to find deals on these.

Pretty good price at Amazon right now. https://www.amazon.com/Optima-Batter...a-0450df0e3f8d

Looks to me like a typo on Summit's site. Optima's site specs the 8020-164 for the Z. The other number doesn't exist on their site.
