Government reforms in Cuba now make it possible for Cubans to shop for new and used cars -- but with mark ups of 400 per cent, they're eye candy more than anything else. 

A Toyota Corolla at at this Peugeot dealership will cost you nearly $40,000 -- and it's not even new.

Some 2013 cars, like the Peugeot 206 are going for $91,000.

Before September 2011, only cars that were in Cuba before the 1959 Revolution could be freely bought and sold.

The new, more lax car sales policy is one of 300 reforms put in place by President Raul Castro.

Newer cars are available for Cuban diplomats and doctors who serve abroad at lower prices.

They're then often times resold at up to five times the price.
