Edit: I forgot the amc javelin to go with the rebel machine. I think Oldsmobile was the only one who didn't make a pony car to go along with the 442. Point is they don't "fall" in the pony car class. They created the class along with the mustang and the others cars mentioned...
Looks like he quoted Merriam- Webster, not wiki..
Regardless, his question still stands unanswered. What makes those cars you mentioned muscle cars? Horsepower? Chassis size? Cubic inches?
