Default Newer S5 with more miles or older with fewer?

I found a 2015 S5 in very clean condition but 69k miles. For a similar price, or less, I could get a 2012-2014 with fewer miles.
What changed between 2012 and 2015 that would be worth getting the newer model with more miles or should I get a slightly older model with fewer miles.
This particular 2015 is a 1 owner car that was bought, serviced and being sold by the same Audi dealer and the owner is a long-time repeat customer who buys and sells every 3-4 years.
The car looks very clean and is the same price as many lower mileage 2012's I've seen.
Later model 2015 with 69k miles or Older Model 2013 and ~30k lower miles?
Any words of wisdom or recommendations?
Any reason to be concerned about a 2015 with 70k miles?
Can you get 200k+ our of an Audi?

Default 2012 and prior...

Depends on what you want. S5 from 2012 and prior were a natural V8. 2013 forward are V6 with a supercharger. I have a 2012 with 38,000 miles and it’s a manual. I love it. Bought it used and I knew 2012 was the last of the V8. I have heard people say the V6 is faster because of less weight but I don’t care all that much because I wanted the natural V8 with manual.
