Congrats on the new purchase and welcome to the board! Make sure to test for torque bind on dry asphalt as the other guys have suggested before ruling out AWD issues. Even if you do have torque bind it's not the end of the world. For what you paid for the car it's still a good deal. I had torque bind on my first SVX and it cost $500 to get it fixed at the dealer.
As for the particulat trim option on yours I see that it has the LSi exterior but with the apolstery(sp?) you have it sounds like an LS (my first SVX was an LS and they have the ecsaine center panels in the seats). Either someone made a rare trim spec request when it was new or a previous owner swapped out the original leather seats with the ecsaine seats, which is more likely the case, as the leather can get pretty ugly if not taken care of.
Best of luck with the car! I know we all enjoy the heck out of ours.
