Update - As part of the purchase the seller (ecarlink.com) put a new set of Pirelli tires on the car. Afterward we had the local Porsche dealer do an oil change, alignment and overall inspection which came back great. The car was sold by the same dealer originally so we also got all of the service records now as well.
We've put close to 500 miles on the car since getting it this week. It ran perfectly during the drive to meet family for Thanksgiving. We couldn't be happier with the purchase.

SO, where is the photo. I need to live Macariously through others.
Thank you all for the responses. We just returned from looking at a 2015 turbo and have one more to look at.
One has the air suspension and one doesn't. What are the thoughts on the air suspension? We have it on our cayenne turbo and like it.

If you don't live in an area with bad roads you probably don't need it but it adds a lot of flexibility to the car even if you don't go off-road.
The air suspension is great! I have it on mine as well. One other cool thing about it is that you can get lowering links for relatively cheap (~$150) to have it go lower than the stock low setting. I haven't done it yet, but will in the near future.

My wife is very happy with her new car.. Runs perfectly. Last Saturday we attended our annual PCA region Christmas party and won a Cobb Tuner device through the silent auction. Will be looking into adding that to the car soon as well.
The pic below is from the local Porsche rally / Toys for Tots run.

Cool thing with air suspension is you can lower the car for $130 if you DIY. https://www.ebay.com/itm/122650087030 Took me less than an hour with a service lift. Didn't even have to take the wheels off. I only lowered mine about an inch but you can go more aggressive if you like.
Looking at Turbo Macan tomorrow, owner is telling me it has air susp., but vindecoder and window sticker, do not show it. How do I know if it has it or not?
There will be a button on the center console to change the ride height and a button in the cargo area to squat the back end down to make loading/unloading easier.

We've now put another 500+ miles on the car and could not be happier with our decision to buy it. The handing and performance are perfect for us although my wife is giving me a hard time about driving her car now more then her. Easier to maneuver around and park then my Turbo Cayenne.
