Sour Experience Saleswoman was excellent and the initial visit was very pleasant. Finance manager quoted one payment over the phone and the actual payment was much hi Saleswoman was excellent and the initial visit was very pleasant. Finance manager quoted one payment over the phone and the actual payment was much higher. Finance manager quoted a value on our trade with the old “I’ll try to get you a little more” good feel gimmick. At delivery we were given even less than originally quoted on the trade! What started off as a great experience ended on a sour note over a few bucks. I don’t see the long term upside of nickel and diming new customers at delivery. More

I love this dealer! Everytime I have a last minute fill air in tire moment, I drive to St James and my service gal Mary gets me going again.

If every service person or employee applied themselves as Mary does, well there would be a lot more people smiling! I dont do surveys, but I do for this car dealer. Anyone buys a car anywhere else, seek help. I always have a pleasant experience here and if you need service, dont forget to ask for Mary, Mary Spira. (The others are great too). More
It wasn't like the normal New Car Buying Experience It started when we first walked in the door and the manager greeted us, asked what we are interested in and said he would have a "Product Specialist" It started when we first walked in the door and the manager greeted us, asked what we are interested in and said he would have a "Product Specialist" assist us. Tim McCrum came over and helped us while we were looking at the red Impreza that was on the floor the my wife and I feel in love with. It was a base model which is what we were interested in. We didn't need a "flashy" car with a lot of bells and whistles. Tim showed us the features that the car had and didn't try to "up-sell" us on a more expensive car. We went over to Tim's desk and he said, "Wait a minute, you haven't even driven the car yet, you need to do a test drive!" So we did. Tim pulled out a similar model and we were off. Tim sat in the back, so my wife and I could sit up front. Not a lot of sales people do that. They want to be upfront selling as you drive. We decided to go with the Red Impreza that was on the floor. Tim brought over coffee and cookies while we worked out the details. No pressure, just a nice guy trying to help us find the best version of the car we wanted/needed. We have a lot of options on Long Island, this was by far the best experience we've had buying a car. I would tell anyone looking for a car to stop in and check out Competition. More

So glad to have made the switch! More
