3. Makes sense. If the OP said July it would be more plausible to me since the production version will be released at Frankfurt soon after.

1. Oh, I see he didn't say spring, he did say before spring but in 2008:

Sorry, that was my mistake; anyway he said there won't be an M3 in the US this year.
2. DSG is the kind of transmission that Audi is already using (for example in TT)
Here's the wikipedia explanation:
