My 2022 GTS has the same problem with the rear getting extremely dirty. I just had a full PPF and ceramic coating but it doesn’t look like that is going to help. I don’t remember reading of this problem for other Macans.
I remember a couple of posts about the issue and that adding the spoiler up top doesn't help.
I went around a lot about wheels but finally decided to stick with the 20” standard S wheels since I Iive in Maine and roads aren’t the greatest. Prefer the slightly larger sidewall. My S build started 12/24 but completion keeps getting pushed back, now to 2/18 with early April dealer delivery. Have had a VIN for a couple of weeks, so have been following the comments re manual or electric steering column. My Sales Mgr is checking w/ Porsche. Which steering column do you have?
Please provide your source for the mud flaps. They’ve been a great asset on my wife’s LR4. My Macan is black so they should blend in fairly well.
Appreciate the pics. Looks great!

I like the higher side wall for comfort and predictability (they telegraph the edge of grip a bit more with taller sidewalls.) Now that I'm older my *** and thick head need more cushion.

On the Macanforum there are a few threads on mud flaps. Consensus was the ones with the vertical lines are preferred. Here's the ones I got - https://www.ebay.com/itm/133958883618. Uses same inner liner screws/holes (2 per flap). The rear flap (vertical line) don't look parallel to tire tread, but I think that's negative camber (~2 deg) moving the bottom of the tire out slightly. Overall, I'm happy with them since I have side skirts and painted rear facia. Just doing rear splash guard area with PPF, front of side skirts don't need PPF.
Here's a few pics I just took.
One thing that's bugging me is the back area (window, lower body and top spoiler) is a damn dust magnet! After a 15min drive to the store on clean paved streets, the back is dirty like the car been sitting in the garage for a week. Maybe it'll be better after the PPF and ceramic coating next week.
Sorry, this comes with the territory of hatch-back vehicles. Lots of turbulence back there and the spoiler really makes sure you have less uplift at speed and makes it worse probably. Mentioned or not in the past, it has been my experience
Had looked at Macan's last month but decided the S and GTS allocations were too far out.
Dealer reached out today that they now have a 2022 Macan GTS available in 6 weeks. It's tempting but for the money, I'd want the build to be perfect. Sales person said they can sell out of market, so I told them I'd try to help them find a buyer.
Selling at MSRP of $91,810 and they include some accessories for free. Let me know if interested, and I can message the dealer's info.
-White exterior, black leather interior
-Premium package plus
-Trailer hitch without tow ball
-Roof rails in black
-Heated steering wheel
-Sport chrono package
-21" Exclusive sport design wheels in jet black metallic
Picture is from the configurator but should be what the vehicle will look like.
Ugh! I just heard from my Porsche SA that my 2022 Macan is delayed again (3rd time). She said there's a "Do Not Deliver" on Macan's due to a required re-programming of the DME control unit. The ETA is now 2/25. It's been sitting at the port in Baltimore for about a month already. Fingers crossed these delays don't continue.

in the same situation. No eta. Macans are all on a stop sale. I still see some getting delivered on here but my SA said it’s all Macans and they can’t deliver any they have already received.
