If the 2015 is a great price and we’ll cared for, I’d get that vs the S.
It’s kind of hard to step down to an S or base if you’re used to driving a Turbo or GTS.

I did take a peak at it today, it is in incredible condition. Barely driven really for being 6 years old. On average seems to be only driven 5,000-6,000 miles per year.
Price isn't too bad, $49,000 is probably a few thousand more than what it would be in a different market.
Dealership would be willing to toss in a year of warranty as well, and I can purchase additional warranty on it.
Ultimately, if it was a long-term car, I would do it but it's something that we do plan on keeping for only a year or two and then hopping into something larger later on after more kids are in the picture. While I know the talk of depreciation is always frowned upon on forums, but it is something I have to keep in mind with this purchase.
And yes while we don't "NEED" a Porsche, it's something I've wanted to give a try as I've been pretty loyal to BMWs for years now.
Other options are:
SQ5, F-Pace, GLC
