Normal. The easy fix is to shorten the right front spring by heating part of it in-situ. This drops the right front corner slightly and raises the left rear an equal amount, and voila, it's level!

A competent frame and wheel specialist can do this, I had mine done last summer by Tru-Line in Seattle for about $50 along with an alignment.
