This really is an interesting discussion of muscle vs. sports cars, but
everything that Detroit makes is NOT a muscle car.  The new 'Vette is an
example.  This car should be compared to exotic cars like a 928 or a 308GTB4
and the like.  A muscle car is a '67 GTO or an early '70's Trans Am with a
454 (or whatever those humungous engines displaced).  Even a new Z28 has
a hard time justifying the muscle car label.
