Never considered this a sports car! It was fast in one direction, heavy braking if you needed to change that direction.

Embarassing, being a Ford guy and all, but #2 is...
AAR Cuda.
Helped a friend rescue one from a slow death drag racing. Beautiful car. Well balanced, clean and powerful with the 340 6 pack and pistol grip.
#1? My 'carryover' 1966 GT350. Clean lines, simple engineering. Get all the mechanical goods of the '65 in a better cosmetic package.

Oh well, guess I'm not much of a car guy.
What is the difference between a Pony Car and a Muscle car?

Fourth post on page two of this thread, Russ Dickey defines the two terms very well.

I'll take a stab at this;
Pony car - So named because the car that started it all was the Ford Mustang in 1964 1/2. These are characterized by being a small car with 2 doors, 4 seats, long hood and short deck with performance aspirations.
Muscle car - Ostensibly started by the 1964 GTO it's characterized by being a mid-sized car with a more powerful full-sized car power train. Cars like it, the Chevelle big blocks, Torino big blocks and the like are what is normally considered a muscle car.
More recent, and more liberal, interpretations of these colloquialisms have resulted in many of the favorites listed in this thread. I.e. anything with a powerful motor being shown as a muscle car, including my own Boss 302 which is more like the quintessential pony car rather than a muscle car. Or the 427 Cobra which is more like the king of the sports cars. It's just that the word "muscle" is so what car guys are into that this probably happens.
Hope that helps, Steve (Pony car owner!)
