The GTO was the first. The Mustang changed everything.

Edit: If you want to get technical the 49 Oldsmobile Rocket 88 was the first muscle car.

Once and for all, I wish someone could explain to me why the Ford guys frequent GM boards? Try talking all that GM trash on a Ford site. Please.

Hate to tell ya all this but first pony car was actually the plymouth barracuda. With that being said ford won over buyers with the role out of the 64 1/2 mustang but plymouth beat them at the tracks.

and the camaro came in later just like the cougar.
