IMO, no chances as updating cars software has been a pain at dealers so far, even for warranty repairs. I don't think that BMW would like to brick a lot of modules just to add a couple of iDrive features.
In addition, all these features were added after updating the hardware as well so that could make it more difficult -and costly for BMW- to just offer a software uptade for older models.

Does the iPod cover art enhancement also apply to US-model cars or is that a Europe-only feature?

That's supposed to come early next year to the USA in a more extensive way (full iPod mode) than even just the Cover Art feature that it is currently offered in Europe right now, but it involves a change of hardware as well (the 6FL module will be new).
