Neither. All it means is that he put you on a waiting list for an allocation that will (hopefully) be assigned to you. Since all MY17 allocations are now out, the earliest you could get it would be a MY18. Allocations for those should be coming out no later than June, as MY18 production starts in late July.

As for the LCI, I don't see the big deal. The car is mostly unchanged, it's not like they're dropping a new engine in it or anything....
