Our auto group, Competition Automotive Group, is based on familiar foundations, a close-knitted atmosphere and flourishing relationships within our staff members and beloved community. We are honored to always aid our immediate home, Smithtown, Saint James and Lake Grove, as well as the entirety of Long Island, the tri-state area and the country! From hosting their first in-house events: the BMW i7 and BMW X7 Launch Event and the BMW Electric Showcase Event, to giving every employee a frozen turkey for Thanksgiving, to delivering gorgeous BMW vehicles to all Long Island residents and beyond!

As 2023 leads us to 2024, Competition BMW of Smithtown and Competition Auto Group are excited to announce our philanthropy will continue strongly!

Meet Tim

Meet Tim. Tim is a local Long Island resident. Tim had been travelling around Long Island without a vehicle, or a license, for 9 years. Tim has been unable to drive for almost a full decade due to his need of a wheelchair-accessible van. Coincidentally, one of our dealership’s Principal, Joe, was casually driving along the local Ronkonkoma, Blue Point and Ridge roads when fate led him to Tim. Tim was also enjoying the local Long Island area. Differing from Mr. Buzzetta, Tim was not traveling in a vehicle, he was taking strides in his remote wheelchair.

As fate would have it, Joe had his father’s, and deceased founder’s, handicap-accessible 2020 Honda Odyssey van on hand. Competition Auto Group and Competition BMW are indescribably proud to donate Joe Buzzetta Sr.’s wheelchair-accessible van to Tim!

Tim is so excited to gain back access to his license, and most importantly, a grander scale of independence! We cannot thank the Buzzetta family and their partners for coming together to recognize a persevering local Long Islander! Safest travels Tim, from everyone at Competition Automotive Group, we wish you the best!
