If it is anything like my Flint Mica tC, It should have metal flakes in it, my tC is sparkles alot in the sun.

Saw my first Pyrite Mica tundras today. Had to drive 45 min. to a Columbus OH dealership to see them. Really gorgeous color! I think my minds (probably) made up. I haven't seen a slate metallic yet, so I guess its possible I could change my mind yet. Also got a chance to check out the Black SR5 cloth interior. I think that's the one.

Have a Pyrite Mica 07 DC Limited. Very pleased with the color. Not too light or too dark, just right to hide dirt between washes and it looks sharp. Definitely a metallic finish to it when you look up close or at the right angle. Only trouble I have is trying to describe the color to someone. It is not a brown, gold, tan, or any other common color so the closest I can get is a "dark clay brown" or something like that for people to understand me.

Just tell people it is the color of Dirt...with sparkles.

Wilee which interior color did you end up with?

The Columbus dealership that I went to had one Pyrite Mica DC 4X2 and it was a limited with the Sand Beige Leather. They also had a CM in Pyrite SR5, IIRC it was the Sand Beige SR5 fabric. I think the Sand Beige SR5 fabric seems kind of light for the Pyrite, not enough contrast. The Graphite Fabric SR5 cloth would work OK I guess, but just doesn't do anything for me when combined with the Pyrite. So the SR5 fabric choice is pretty easy, not sure what I'd do if I was looking at going with a Limited.

does anybody know if this color is available in Canada ?

Hard to say. On us site it says pyrite mica on canadian site its just pyrite, but i'm not sure if they are exact the same.

I have the Pyrite Mica w/ Red Rock. People either love or hate the Red Rock!
I happen to think it is the best color!
