Either you want it out front to service it, change it, disconnect it, etc. easily or you want it in back where it is protected from damage in an auto accident, stays warmer in cold climates, or is an absolute bugger to get out of there :p
This applies to a lot of things...I guess I have a weird look on things since I have seen all too many cars folded around, into, or through poles, walls, and other cars.

well if you have to worry about the battery being protected in an accident...even up fron't the car is likely to be scrap if it gets damaged enough to crush it.
Sitting all night in the winter the firewall is no warmer than the front. Thats a non issue, but it won't eat holes into the passenger compartment either.
