Interior door gaps different?

I noticed that my driver side door doesn't close as well on the interior as the passenger side. The outsides are lined up right, but not the interior. Is that how they are? Here are pics:

Any help? Also, if you open the hatch and look into the car at the back seat, it's not even. One side of the seat is higher than the other in relation to the "hump".

Well, from that description, I'd assume that your car was wrecked and pulled back out. If you're sure that's not the case, I would assume that the door is due to manufacturing tolerances (possibly aftermarket unless you're sure it's original). Other than that, a body guy would know more. I'd get under the car and do some measuring corner-to-corner.
