I'm no expert. My understanding is that you will have way more leverage if you pick something from the current stock the dealership has in hand and they're motivated to move quickly. Right around that time (early March) the factory switches to the following year's model, price increases may take place, etc. But hey, you'll be one of the first ones to receive the following year's model. Dealers might still give you some sort of discount. You will have to shop around to see who gives you the best deal on a the latest model of a special order X1. Don't expect much.
So, if your plan is to have a special order X1, my feeling is that anytime of the year should be good. It comes down to shopping around with several dealers and see who's more eager to get your business.
Edit: As you may know, last week of the month is perfect timing to get the best possible deals.
