Pulling to the left...alignment problem?

My 2003 CL Type S with 6 speed is a great car, nearly perfect quality in every way but one: It has a tendency to pull to the left. This is not a torque steer issue as it happens when cruising, not just under acceleration. Believe me, it's not an issue of the road crown either. And it's not a tire inflation problem. The alignment is within specs, not out enough in any way to require adjustment, per the dealer. The caster is slightly more positive on the driver's side, but I am told that the shims cause a change of 0.5 and the cross caster is only off by 0.3. The car has not been modified in any way, and only had 10 miles on it when I took delivery in November. I now have driven it nearly 3,000 miles, but this problem has been there since new. Any ideas?
Thanks,
joeshed

Notice any tire wear? other things that can cause pull are a hanging brake or tire preasure.
