I noticed mine does the same after about 150 miles. I originally thought it was the roads and the low profile tires. Mine doesnt pull, just kind of slightly drifts that way.

A car that pulls, especially a brand new one, is very annoying. From day one, my 07 tC pulled to the right. If I held the wheel level, it would turn left. The dealer offered to fix it, but I installed TRD springs and then did the 4 wheel alignment. Now it's perfect, no pulling either direction and the wheel is dead level. Now it looks, drives, and handles like it should direct from the factory.

Okay so I took my car into Toyota this morning, they performed an all wheel alignment and said the only thing that looked off was the front right toe in. They said it wasn't off by enough to make the car pull though. I dunno, the car still pulls to the right for me, I guess that's the nature of the beast and or the stock OEM tires really like tracking to the road really well. I might be just over **** about the way my car tracks.

I know this may sound dumb, but check your tire pressures. I know mine were set low and not even when I left the dealer. I run 32 PSI on all 4 tires now, and the car seems to track pretty well on nice roads. The tires being wider and low profile do pick up more road conditions than tires I am use too.
