GM isn't limiting pre-orders. They are just offering a launch edition with a number plate for the first 250 cars produced. After that it is normal production numbers like previous model. Similar to what Mercedes does with AMG cars and the "Edition One". It is to hype the launch. If the first 250 numbered cars are pre-ordered, they will continue to take deposits for normal production.

Exactly.

CT5-V Black is actually $2k less than the last model of CTS-V(2019) it is replacing. This guy thinks these Blackwings are going to be some limited production car ala CS BMW models. Simply not the case, they just changed nomenclature. CTS V-Sport = CT5-V and CTS-V = CT5-V Blackwing
