Roof metal (with sun roof)

My car has a sun roof, but I don't know if that's relevant. When I tap the metal, it doesn't have that nice, reassuring sound that the steel panels have. Is it a different metal? Aluminum, maybe?

It's aluminium. As is the hood and the rear doors.

The roof is not aluminum, lots of sunroof cars rust at the pinch welds. It took me a long time to find a roof in good shape for my car.
