I have a feeling by the end of this decade, BMW will have created AT LEAST up to 10 series.

This totally defeats the whole purpose of the tradition and history that these numbers mean. The 3 series, 5 series, and 7 series have established an extremely successful name throughout history. Now BMW is just bringing out the 2 and 4 series out of nowhere.
1/3/5/7 = sedan/wagon/GT
2/4/6 = coupe/grancoupe

2series is US 1 series.
4series is 3 series coupe/convertible.
