2008 911 rear wheel issue

I have a 911 2008 I just bought and noticed the passenger side rear wheel is out further to than on the drivers side. Appears to be 1/4 - 1/2 inches difference. I was wondering if anyone else had this problem or if knows what could be wrong. Any help is appreciated.

If you did not buy the car new, I would have a competent shop put it up in the air and look at it from below for old damage; the car may have been hit at one time.

Thanks for all the input. I took the car to Porsche today and camber was off. Car was re-alligned and check over thoroughly and not other issues were found. Also had them check for any body damage at some point and all is good. No paint or body work has been done. Porsche dealer said it was a very nice car and runs out just fine. I now can breath a sigh of relief.
