Really disappointed with our "space white" paint on this car. I've owned a least a dozen cars and non have chipped as much as this car from the usual light sand / grit / stones from normal highway city driving commuting to and from work.

Same with our Star White...

Took too long to convince the Mrs. we need to PPF the whole front end, and she hated the chips more!

Haven't seen a dent/chip since.

New environmental regs means water based paints. Add thin clear coats to save money and you get crappy paint durability.
