European cars seem to have a problem with soft glass - the Porsches I drove before moving up to BMW all had rock chips in the windshield. I had an '81 911SC Targa that had to have the windshield replaced because it became "frosted" over time, like it was dirty, but it was permanent. No real solution other than avoid driving too close to other vehicles, particularly large trucks, especially when there's debris (sand or gravel) on the shoulders.
That said, my 2013 F30 doesn't have any chips or cracks in its windshield after 4+ years.
