I'm on record saying it won't happen (at least not on the E92).

For all of you guys so sure that it will, I'll bet you $100 it won't. PM me if you're interested in the bet.
BTW, this is my "official" input:

My question to BMW:

Will September production e92 M3's heading to the United States have the update iDrive system? The information on this topic is scattered and it is hampering my decision to order an 08 or 09.

Dear Mr. XXXXXX:

Thank you for your patience while I researched your inquiry. The E90 will have the refreshed iDrive system in it. Although no official announcement has been made about the E92, it is anticipated that it will. We will probably not have an official answer until closer to the date of production.

Sincerely,

As far as I am concerned that closes the book on the e90. The e92 is still very much up in the air!
