There usually is one, but it's still worth doing that.

You can take advantage of that. After all the price negotiation is done when I buy a car, I would ask the salesperson for the rebates on financing. Usually they have $0 for the all-cash deal, $X for 0% rate loan, $Y for 2%, $Z for 5% loan, where X < Y < Z. I would take the worst loan with the biggest rebate, acting like a dumb customer.
Then on the first loan payment, pay off the whole thing. Just be sure there's no prepayment penalty.
