The reason I have to wait for two years at the most is because the dealership I am buying it from has a wait list, I am number four. The dealership only gets two a year, therefore I will get mine in at most two years, unless of course someone drops off the list in front of me then I get it sooner :green: And it is road legal in the US, the dealership has submitted their first order already.
edit: also, it is my understanding that if someone who is currently waiting for a modena were to change their order to a stradale they would be put on the list BEHIND me, not in front of me. So no matter what I will have mine in at most two years.
