I often purchase vehicles from auctions relying on pictures alone.  I have been looking for a Turbo S for myself.  I know how to determine if the Cayenne is a Turbo or non-Turbo by looking at the 5th digit of the VIN.  Is there a way to determine if a Cayenne is a standard Turbo or Turbo S by looking at the VIN as well?  I was thinking that possibly the Turbo S's were only manufactured at a particular plant, or they may have been dedicated to a certain block of VINs that are grouped together by the last 5 digits.  Buying vehicles relying on pictures alone has become a bit disappointing, as some people will put badges on vehicles that don't belong on there.  I would hate to purchase a Turbo, thinking it is a Turbo S, just because someone put an "S" badge after the "Turbo" badge on the rear hatch.

Thank you for your response.  I was aware of the option list, and what they represent, but I am not provided any pictures of that and was wondering if there was a way to determine if the vehicle is a Turbo S exclusively by the VIN.  I doubt there is, but it may be possible.
