Technically, no they are not. Camaros are pony cars. Pony cars were sporty versions of economy cars, whereas the muscle cars like the GTO were based on mid sized cars.

My distintion though is the difference between a car like a Camaro, Corvette Mustang Chevelle GTO etc, and a device used for transportation. To me talking about Subarus Toyotas etc is like talking about refrigerators or stoves.

Camaros=pony cars
GTOs,A-bodies= musclecars.........
Man, I am loving this, but it may start a war on this site......

id say it would be tough to call the 67/69z28s and 69 copos pony cars and not muscle cars. just my opinion.

I have to admit that although I wouldn't be caught riding in a WRX, I ALWAYS end up chasing them around the track.

Yea, at a track day back in November, I got my a** handed to me by more than one STi. Granted, I'm sure the driving had something to do with that since it was my first time to the track.

my dd is a 04 wrx or transportation appliance LOL, i love this car. for the money i paid and never working on it (except maintenance) it can perform better than most older muscle cars i see driving around ie, stop, get better gas milage, not to mention that it takes great turns. i totally agree that it is nowhere near as goodlooking as a muscle car but it does perform. just my .02

I would say the Z28's would be pony cars and the COPOs, Yenkos, big block SS's, would be muscle cars.
Unless the pony/muscle designation refers to body size only.
