    I will be trading in my 07 prerunner double cab for a new 4x4 soon, I have the color narrowed down between pyrite mica and magnetic metallic grey. Anyone have any input related to these colors? Please help me with the decision because I am having a hard time making it on my own!

    both colors are great and hide the fact that your truck needs a wash. I'm partial to MGM... Both cars are that color! :D

    after having both i would go with the pyrite mica, the MGM is probably my favorite color but it shows every little scuff scratch. The pyrite seems to hide them a little better. And its much less common where i live.
