is the left front higher to match? maybe it's just a front torsion bar adjustment away from being level.

That's funny, my BMW has been an inch lower since new and it has always bothered me. I've never done anything about it however too late now. Could that be a torsion bar adjustment as well?

Another more common problem that would cause this is a worn spring plate bushing. The torsion bar tube will actually rest against the botom of the metal housing when the bushing wears. This allows water to get in, resulting in rust, making the condition worse (ask me how I know this).
Take a look at the bushings on each side and see if the tube is centered.
