Maybe excess condensation in Tail Pipe?

Maybe excess condensation in Tail Pipe?
Quick question and perhaps this is normal; just not something I've ever noticed before.
Fired up the 3.0 and did a quick walk-around to the trunk to get something out.
Looked down at one of the tailpipes and noticed water dripping out from the tip. Took a peak further inside the pipe and noticed a condensation water puddle just inside the tailpipe tip. I used a cloth to soak up all of the water puddle until it was dry. Next morning, I fired the engine up and noticed immediately the same condensation puddle. After about 5 minutes the condensation puddle reaches a max level and stops dripping from the tip.
I've only got 7110 miles on the odometer and the engine purrs like a kitten. The car is not my daily driver - I keep it in a climate controlled garage.
Is this just something normal that I never really noticed before. Any 3.0 owners with the same observation?
Thanks,
