Aluminum/Aluminium

I've been thinking about aluminum a lot lately. 1/3 the weight of steel, but also apparently 1/3 the strength. But there are lots of places weight saving could be had. Hood, trunk lid, seat divider, fenders, valences, drive shaft, wheels, and so on. Wonder how much weight reduction is possible.
