Holiday Donations 2021

Get into the holiday spirit by helping a family in need. Competition Auto group is proud to be working with EJ’s PJS Pajama Drive. Make the holidays special by donating any new or unused pajamas to families in need at any one of our Competition Auto Group Locations going on now through December 15th, 2021!

EJ’s PJs started with one mission in mind – to give pajamas to children of all ages who need the items the most – and that mission has not changed in the 10 years since Patricia Poggi and her three sons, Edward, Jeremy and Patrick, started the drive. EJ’s PJs began to give back to the community and to take time out of the holiday season to reflect upon what matters most in this life, which is helping others!

What Does It Mean If My Car Is In Transit?

What does it mean if my car is in Transit? If your vehicle is in transit, it means a designation for vehicles that have come off the assembly line but have not yet arrived at the dealership. Depending where the model line is produced the vehicle can arrive at the dealership within 3-30 days. If you head to our website at Competition Subaru, under new vehicles these vehicles will be listed “In Transit” until they have arrived at our dealership. What does in Transit mean for a Factory Order? If you purchase a vehicle that is not in stock our dealer may be able to custom order from the factory. Once your vehicle is built in the factory it waits to be delivered. Once the vehicle leaves the factory then it is considered “In Transit.” Your Sales Consultant will then provide you with updates on the status of your vehicle.
