"Pony car" is a unibody car designed to compete in Trans Am racing in the '60's. The term "Pony Car" was derived from the Mustang which was the first pony car produced.

"Classic car" is any car 10 years old or older, the first or last of a series, or limited edition.

"Antique car" is any vehicle 25 years old or older.

(The last two are the requirements for the Pa. DMV)

SO, muscle cars can be classics, but not all classics are muscle cars. .....but they do over lap in some cases.
I agree with what you have said, but for me Antique is 50 years or older.
