What Size Car Battery Do I Need for a 2001 Vw Jetta Vr6.?

I have a 2001 JEtta and I think I need to replace the battery. It doesn't seem to jump right up and start when I go to do so. Plus the battery seems to drain really quick if I am doing something in the car and using the radio. What size battery do I need to replace it? Its a VR6 model with six cylinders. Also is there a brand you recommend? Thank You.

Suggestion:

The largest that will fit in the batter holder is best. Large batteries do not cost more, but handle heat better. The main thing with VW is they use lower batteries then most cars.
The brand is not relevant since most batteries are actually made by Globe Union, and sold under different labels. For example, the Sears DieHard is actually made by Globe Union.

If it is Original to the car you got your money worth out of it, but you can have an auto parts store check it out too. Auto zone tests battery for free.
