My understanding is that it has to be landed in the US.
In other words, you can't just store it, the car needs to be put on the road.

This would require that a US citizen own it in order to license it.
I happen to have a sister in PA & I was going to work it through her.

I agree I may have oversimplied it for a few steps missing from the above and agree in concept with what you are saying ...but debating very specific technical details is somewhat pointless unless you have something formal in writing. However, I doubt being a "US citizen" is the only way to get there...e.g. what if you are a Canadian snowbird (i.e. Canadian resident living in US for period of time but that is not a US citizen) and buy it in US, license it and drive/keep the vehicle at a US address for 6 months or more before bringing back to Canada? My guess is that would work too, as other scenarios, so long as purchased by someone with a US address and remaining in the US for the specified period of time.
