The Corvette has never been a muscle car, and neither has the camaro or mustang.
The camaro and mustang are pony cars (smaller cars 2+2 with a big engine) while the corvette is a true sports car.
"a 383 tri-power if I am not mistaken"
Depends on year. The biggest engine for the gtos was a 454 I think. They were always just a tempest or a Lemans with a slightly different body and a big engine.

Muscle cars arent all sedans. I think of the Mustang/Camaro/Firebird as apart of the Muscle car category.
And the GTO just doesnt have the musculer lines that its predecessor had.
