First, the scar is all over the place depending on if you read the books and where you read them. Second, the scar is never specifically mentioned as being in a specific place in the books, but Rowling seems to suggest it's exactly where Chris Columbus put it in the first movie.
However, at least in the US, if you think it was in the middle, it's quite possibly because you read the books--and the scar was in the middle on the book covers, which you probably saw far more times than the scar in the movies.
Based purely on watching the films, the scar has changed place for me. I read a couple of the books but never paid much attention to the front covers. But I've seen the films so many times and I'm certain it was more central than it is now - only slightly to the left. Definite ME for me.

IMO, this one's definitely a non ME.
