Not sure why they are quoting you 3.99% unless your term is beyond 60 months.
They're probably just marking it up to get back some of the discount they're offering on the front end. My dealer did the same and I got them down to 3.49%. Given I'm financing only half of my car, it cost about $500 over the course of the loan so I factored that in when negotiating the front end discount which ended up at 10% off. End of the day, I probably could have gotten maybe 1% more off the total price of the car but they stuck to their guns and I didn't have the time to shop around.
