Actually, PenFed's rates have been (and still are today) 1.49% for both new and used for up to $70k and 60 months. So doing a re-fi with them will still be 1.49% even if it is considered "used".
My wife is replacing her '06 330i with an X5 and we were seriously considering the PenFed loan, but since she is only planning to keep the car a few years, we're going the lease route instead for this one. At least we still get to grab the $2250 incentive deal.
