Yes they are effective. Only difference which you might see in these bar soaps is that most of them will have a relatively high pH as compared to corresponding body wash. High pH soaps might be little tough on skin and might not work on people with sensitive skin. People with sensitive skin might also face dryness with regular use. Even if you wish to use an antibacterial bar soap, it would be good to prefer the body wash variant.

Is it bad to wash a car with body soap?

What do you mean by body soap? Soap that is in bar form, or soap that in a bottle like body wash? Bar soap could pick up sand and grit that might scratch the finish. Body wash is a mild abrasive but I have never heard of anybody using it for washing a car but I assume that a slight clouding of the clear coat is possible. If you have access to dish soap (detergent) it is the best improvised automotive soap.
