They arent really pretty, purposeful, impressive, intimidating but not truly pretty.

The early GT350 Mustangs were very pretty:



I also love the 1st gen Camaro:



The Chevelle is also pretty sweet looking



Finally, my all-time favourite, the '71 Trans-Am (with 455 cu in V8):

Have you ever heard one..? I followed a GT500 to work a little while ago. It was quite chilly, yet for some reason I had all my windows down and for once drove to work with a bloody big smile on my face.

Can't wait for the summer when I can get this out of my lock up and fire up the 468ci V8 :

Can't belive these are not on here:





And a bit of OZ:



Go on Holden....Build It!! Go on Vauxhall....Import it!!


Anyhoo, does muscle have to be American?: Can't beat a bit of Euro muscle (well, AC and GT40 is technically British, but...):

A nice pimpin' XK12C:



And a 560SEC:



Maybe a stately home with 600lb/ft and a turbo bigger than the family estate's guest quarters is a bit too posh to be called muscle, but just drive one...they are a hoot! ...
