Muscle Car Definition
:
Perhaps the most common question people have is what exactly is a muscle
car. The term wasn't even used until the late 1970s, in the 1960s there were often called
"Super Cars" if called anything at all. Therefore, the actual definition of a
muscle car, or which models were muscle cars, is a topic that is often disputed. Here is
the general interpretation of what is a muscle car and what cars qualify, and which don't.

The first true muscle car
Strict Definition of a Muscle Car: A
muscle car, by the strictest definition, is an intermediate sized, performance oriented
model, powered by a large V8 engine, at an affordable price. Most of these models were
based on "regular" production vehicles. These vehicles are generally not
considered muscle cars, even when equipped with large V8s. If there was a high performance
version available, it gets the credit, and not the vehicle that it was based on. Examples: Buick GS, Chevrolete Chevelle SS, Dodge Charger R/T, Ford
Torino/Cobra, Plymouth GTX, Plymouth Road Runner, Oldsmobile 442, Pontiac GTO
Fullsize Muscle Car:
The strict definition only includes intermediate size vehicles. In reality, performance
oriented intermediate size vehicles didn't appear until 1964. Before then, manufacturers
took existing fullsize vehicles and added extra performance to them. Because of this, the
early fullsize performance vehicles are generally considered muscle cars. Examples: Chevrolet Impala (SS only), Ford Galaxie (with 390 + cid
engines only), Dodge Coronet (R/Ts only), etc.
Pony Cars and Compact Cars:In
addition to fullsize and intermediate muscle cars, a number of smaller vehicles started
appearing on the automotive performance scene. These new "pony cars" and compact
cars are generally considered muscle cars only if they have the top of the line
performance engines and options.... Examples: Chevrolet Camaro (SS
and Z28 models only), Ford Mustang (GTs and Boss only), Plymouth 'Cudas (no Barracudas),
AMC Javelin, etc.
Personal Luxury Cars and Luxury Cars:
Although there were several personal luxury vehicles with performance engines and options,
their heavy weight and high sticker prices went against the low cost performance
definition of muscle cars. Therefore, they are not considered muscle cars. Examples: Buick
Riviera, Chrysler 300 Letter Cars, Pontiac Grand Prix, etc.
Two Seat Sports Cars:
Two seat sports cars such as the Chevrolet Corvette, AC Cobra427 and the Ford Thunderbird
are not considered muscle cars due to their high price and specialty nature. The only
exception is the AMC AMX as it was relatively cheap, and was based on the AMC Javalin pony
car.

August, it attracts more than 1.5 million people and 40,000 muscle cars, street rods,
custom, collector and special interest vehicles. The cars cruise a legendary 16-mile strip
called Woodward Avenue in one glorious, celebratory, homage to America's love affair with
