If one wants to focus on the imagery of “pony” car, the mustang was one of those (as The Beach Boys would say) “get around” cars that the young set liked when these were first marketed. “Coche para desplazarse” for the sheer fun of it. Carefree as a pony.

coches más "macarras"
Mullet hace referencia al conductor (a su corte de pelo; corto a los lados y melenita por detrás). En inglés diría que hace referencia a lo que por aquí podríamos denominar "macarra".

... son dos de los argumentos con los que se aterriza el Camaro más 'macarra' de todos los tiempos

Muscle car
Ese tipo de coches se conocen generalmente en español por el término inglés "muscle cars". Un muscle car era un coche de tamaño medio, con un precio razonable y orientado a las altas prestaciones gracias a sus potentes motores V8. Se consideraban muscle cars sólo a las versiones más potentes y deportivas de ciertos modelos. Los muscle cars puros se dividían en Fullsize Muscle Cars (Dodge Coronet R/T, Chevy Impala SS), Intermediate Muscle Car (Pontiac GTO, Plymouth Road Runner, Dodge Charger R/T) y Specialty Muscle Car (Dodge Daytona, Plymouth Superbird). Además de esto, estaban los Pony Cars (Ford Mustang Boss, Chevrolet Camaro Z28, Dodge Challenger R/T, AMC Javelin AMX). Lo que los diferenciaba básicamente era su tamaño, pero no sus prestaciones.
