Smithtown vs. St. James: Why Competition Subaru Proudly Calls Both Places Home

A Tale of Two Towns: Our Unique Long Island Roots
Here at Competition Subaru, we often get asked a very specific question by our first-time customers: “If your name is Competition Subaru of Smithtown, why is your address in St. James?” It is a fair question that speaks to the unique, deeply interconnected geography of our local Long Island community. The truth is, we suffer from a bit of a geographical identity crisis—but we embrace it wholeheartedly. While our physical footprint and official mailing address are located in the beautiful hamlet of St. James, our dealership has been woven into the fabric of the greater Smithtown community for decades. Rather than choosing between the two, we proudly celebrate our role in serving both of these incredible towns.
