Cuba gives green light to buying, selling cars

(Reuters) - For the first time since the 1959 revolution, Cubans will have the right to buy and sell cars in a much-anticipated reform under President Raul Castro, another step toward greater economic freedom on the communist-led island. One difficulty facing many Cubans, who make an average monthly salary equivalent to about $20, will be rounding up the money to buy a car. "It's a good law, but I can't even buy a bicycle," said a peanut vendor who did not give his name.
A black market in which people illegally purchased cars licensed to somebody else has also been active.
Not to many customers there for new cars I would imagine
