i still don't get this aluminum shortage, isn't like 50% of the car made of aluminum, regardless which interior trim you pick? if they were short of that metal, don't you think that would slow down/stop BMW's production in general? especially higher-end cars (5er, 7er...) that use even more aluminum, excluding the trim.
