This doesn't really make sense.
If you are pre-approved financing from an outside institution (i.e. not the Dealership's credit arm) or paying with straight up cash, they don't care. It's all the same to them.
How you are paying is not a concern to the dealer until you have agreed on a price and you go back to the finance manager's office to pay for it.
