Default Rear Wheels Appear Inverted?

Hello Everyone. New to this board, but not boards in general.

I purchased a gray 2016 NX 200T for my wife last May. Basic model, cream interior. Around 7900 miles as of this morning. It was down to this or the Discovery Sport. Felt the Lexus was a better value and would definitely last longer than the Range Rover, so we made the jump. Our first Lexus and so she loves it.

I did notice today that then I look at the rear wheels, it doesn't appear to be perfectly "vertical" if that makes sense. It looks a little pigeon toed, where it comes out at the bottom. The front wheels don't have this issue. Not sure if it's always been like this, but I definitely noticed it this morning. Anyone else experience this?

Thanks!

Negative camber. Perfectly normal. Helps with grip when cornering among other things. I am assuming FWD since it is the basic model, and generally they will have less camber (closer to perpendicular) since they will be the drive wheels.

I'm glad I asked. Yes, FWD. Thank you!
