Default So what are we calling the 05/06 Stangs?

Hello MF'ers, we're dealing with a small quandry that I'm sure you guys and gals can help us with.
We're getting ready for the 07's and started thinking to our selves, "selves, are we going to just keep adding years for the new Stangs, or give them a name that the world can relate to?". As far as we can tell, most people are referring to the new Stangs as 05's or 06's, which is fine because we can just call this section 2005-2008 or however long they run with the new body style, but we wanted to get a few of your ideas.
What's the word on the street?
Thank you,
Chris

Could always go with S-197, or call it the 2005 + stang forum (until the next change, then call it the 2005-XXXX forum)

So the 2007 body style is going to be the same as the 2005/2006? Was thinking this was just a 2 year thing.

Ya, I'm hearing S197 being used more and more, but it reminds me of a Saleen term or something. I got tired of the term retro Stang pretty fast for some reason, but I was at a show last weekend, and on their little area map of the sections, they called the 05/06 section as the "Retro Stang" group, LOL. When I saw that I figured that must be the name that's sticking, but I really hope not. [sm=smiley36.gif]

"The Best Mustangs Ever"

Ok, ok, fine. "2005+" and "S197s" work for me.

Best,
