10 cars you have to wait for

Nobody likes to wait. When people want something, they want it now. This is never more true than when the object in question is a sexy new product, one that has been the subject of mouthwatering, tantalizing ad campaigns, such as those frequently used for new cars.

New cars debut at auto shows well in advance of their street dates, giving enthusiasts months, sometimes years, to salivate over photos and to fantasize about when they can drive one off the lot. Needless to say, the longer the waiting period, the more desirable these cars become.

What follows is a list of 10 upcoming cars that you can’t buy yet, provided by Karl Brauer, CEO and editor-in-chief of TotalCarScore.com, an online review aggregator and information resource for cars on the market. According to Brauer, these cars will be worth the wait. In some cases, the cars are slated for release so far in the future that pictures don't yet exist, so we used the latest models available in those cases.

Read ahead and see which cars made TotalCarScore.com’s list of cars you have to wait for.

2013 SRT Viper

The Dodge Viper returns to the marketplace after a two-year absence. Now dubbed the SRT Viper, Brauer of TotalCarScore.com referred to it as “the newest product from Chrysler's newest, performance-oriented brand” in an email.

“With 640 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque from the V10 engine,” Brauer adds, “it will have a top speed of 206 mph (miles per hour) and hit 60 mph in around 3.5 seconds,” he said. “An updated chassis, suspension and interior make it the most refined Viper ever, all for a starting price just under $100,000.”
