I'm abig fan of "Bimmer" and also of "Performance BMW" they are both good reads and are slowly but surely showing more e92's.

My favorite is BMW Car - good writing, good photography. However BMW Car and Bimmer are biased towards new models in their coverage. Total BMW and Performance BMW (same publisher, iirc) focus more on the older models and modifications/maintenance. The only reason to read Bimmer is Mike Miller, imo, especially the buying guides.

I find BMW Club Magazine are great (Roundel/DeBayerische) but read it with a open mind, theres quite abit of marketing written in their articles.

Well, the various forums (here, e90fanatics.com, bimmerfest.com) offer much more info and it's much more immediate than any magazine. The above posts have covered pretty much all of the English-language BMW magazines. I'd also recommend Car and Evo, though I expect they'll be focusing on the new M3s now it's launched, and European Car does an interesting article occasionally.
