In my opinion i think muscle cars are 2 door cars with 4 seats,300+ HP and Pony/Intermediate or Full size cars but not 2 seater cars like corvettes/cobra/viper etc... those fall into the sports car or super car categories.

i know that the 69' Z28 is under 300 hp but we all know that's not the truth so that car would be a muscle car.
i know a lot of you will argue this but it's only my opinion.

[1967 Impala]

But the Cobra and Corvette fall under the Musclecar mantra Small light body Big V8 power so to me its a real toss up.

[Mr. Chevy]

The Novas never seem to be included in anything.. As I said before they are the "Bastard Step Children" of the Chevy Family.... Most likely because they were originally designed as an economy car and not a sports car...

Probably one of the COOLEST Musclecars though, at least I think so!! Sorry for the little NOVAS!!!!

I'm with Rob...need to at least mention the 68 Gibb COPO Novas

[markjohnson]

No, I don't think the '68 Gibb Novas belong on the list because that's a factory race car. Factory race cars like Z-11 Impalas, '62-3 SD421 Catalinas, Thunderbolts, aluminum front end Race Hemis, etc. should be exempt along with Corvettes/Vipers. All 10 cars have to be something relatively available to ANYONE that could've walked into a dealer and drove away in. Don't forget that this list is just TOP 10 and NOT 10 Fastest. That means although the '67-69 Z/28's are far from the fastest with that torque-lacking motor, it's such an iconic Musclecar that it belongs anyway.
