For once...
I HAVE THE ANSWER!!
I had the same trouble when I first got this car; for months, I could swear I was pulling in straight (or backing in straight), then get out of the car only to discover that I was parked diagonally again. Drove me crazy. As you've probably all guessed by now, I'm a little OCD, and parking poorly is something I don't tolerate well, especially when I'm the one doing the poor parking.
You know what it was, at least for me, and I'm guessing for many of you? This car's door is swept up at a fairly severe angle front to back along the slot into which the window retracts. Most cars are either level, or slightly raked upwards. The FR-S/BRZ takes that "slightly raked upwards" to an extreme. If you rely on the sight picture out of your driver and passenger windows to confirm whether or not you're parked straight, that angle will mess with you big time.
The second I realized that's what it was, my parking straightened out.
