Hi, I'm looking to purchase a 2005 Element with 199K Miles, Auto (I love stick... but my wife needs to drive this car sometimes too), decent shape inside, immaculate outside.
Pulls to the right at WOT (hard acceleration) but the rear tires are bald... could that be the source (could it be differential or suspension related)? Anyone know what it might be? It brakes evenly and AWD seems to work fine.
Also, the K24 in it leaks a bit on the passenger side (normal?)

I managed to talk the owner down to $3000, is that a good deal?

Thanks.
