Fantastic Experience! I cannot say enough wonderful things about Jeff Barkin. He completely changed my mind about the expectations I had in the past about car dealers. He I cannot say enough wonderful things about Jeff Barkin. He completely changed my mind about the expectations I had in the past about car dealers. He has a heart of gold and is one of these human beings that you know is incredibly genuine. I think in his next life, he will be a psychologist or another kind of caretaker because he truly cares about people! I came to Jeff after having a terrible experience at Donaldson's Suburu (anyone going to that dealership, please beware). I walked into Competition Suburu feeling a bit mistrustful after the way I had been treated at Donaldsons. In about two minutes, I could tell that Jeff was trustworthy and there to help. He quoted me a much lower price than the other dealership and answered all of my questions (and I had many!) with the patience of a saint. I happily ordered a brand new 2015 Suburu Imprezza that should be coming in very soon (yay!). But the story does not end there. I drove to the dealership in an old 2004 Mercedes. The brakes were worn away to practically nothing (something Mercedes failed to tell me), and Jeff refused to let me drive off without making me promise that I would let him work out a deal with the service department to fix my brakes for an extremely affordable rate. He made my safety a priority. Other dealers make you feel like a number.....Jeff makes you feel like you matter. The very next day, he had an appointment set up for me to get my car fixed and Jeff drove me to Enterprise to make sure that I was able to get a rental car with no glitches. Competition would not give me a loaner car since I did not already own a Suburu prior to my purchase, but Jeff went out of his way to make sure that I was able to get a rental from an outside company (Enterprise). Even though ideally, it would have been easier to get a loaner car from Suburu, Jeff made the situation go extremely smoothly. Jeff Barkin truly is a gem. I plan on working with him for many years to come and I already started telling everyone I know that if they need a Suburu.....Jeff is their guy! More

Very pleasant dealing with this guy (Jeff Barkan) I ordered a 2015 Impreza, (SP) thru Jeff for my wife as surprise for her. Jeff was recommended by two co-workers of mine whom they bought cars from C I ordered a 2015 Impreza, (SP) thru Jeff for my wife as surprise for her. Jeff was recommended by two co-workers of mine whom they bought cars from Competition Subaru. Jeff is friendly and no hassle, straight forward person, even though the deal went great, but I have to cancel the order due some personal reason. If am in need of a new Subaru car in the near future, I will give him a call. Reason of cancelling the order: In-laws gave my wife one of their (2011) car as gift for her. Bee More

So easy, even a Caveman can do it! I reached out to Competition Subaru initially via email, gathering competitive prices from both local and out-of-town Subaru dealerships. Competition I reached out to Competition Subaru initially via email, gathering competitive prices from both local and out-of-town Subaru dealerships. Competition hooked me up over the phone with Jeff Barkan and that was the beginning of a beautiful relationship. Jeff and I hit it off immediately over the phone and I was immediately comfortable dealing with an individual whom I had never met to purchase such a big-ticket item. We settled on a price over the phone, add-on accessories and Jeff even said he would take in my off-lease Buick Regal even though Competition is not a Buick Dealer. The convenience of the transaction mirrored my confidence in dealing with Jeff. On delivery date, the car was pristine and Jeff, although busy with other customers, made sure that I was comfortable to drive away in my new Subaru. He even explained the NYS Lemon Law to me! Now what car salesman who you know does a thing like that? Jeff is obviously confident in the Subaru product and in the service dept. of his dealership. Plus, Jeff knows the Forester inside and out and can answer any question about the car be it technical or aesthetic. All in all this was the easiest, pain-free automobile purchase I have ever transacted and I have now done 11 of these. And no, I am not related to Jeff - I am just a savy consumer who feels good when he chooses the right people to do business with. Good job Jeff! More

Jeff Barkan was great for my purchase Jeff Barkan was my salesperson. He was great. He was patient, supportive, helpful, honest and always upbeat never pushy. My sale was challenging be Jeff Barkan was my salesperson. He was great. He was patient, supportive, helpful, honest and always upbeat never pushy. My sale was challenging because I wanted to wait for the new model to be ready for sale. It was the 2015 Outback. My 2011 Outback lease was up and Jeff helped me through extending the lease. He kept me informed during the whole process. He even called a week after I got the car to see how much I love it. Subarus are great cars, you can't beat them for safety in the snow. You can't get stuck. I take mine out in the worst of snow storms to test them and I always get back safely. I will only drive Subarus especially after last winter and I will always use Jeff Barkan for my purchases. I recommend him highly. More

Extremely Happy!! I recently purchased my first Subaru with Dave Leonard. I have been shopping for a car for 2 years now. This was by far the most non-pressured, hassle I recently purchased my first Subaru with Dave Leonard. I have been shopping for a car for 2 years now. This was by far the most non-pressured, hassle-free, car sale experience I have ever had. So pleased with the salesman and my new cross-trek. See Dave if you are looking for a new Subaru, you will not be disappointed!!! More
