Steam from exhaust 120-130

I'm getting a lot of condensation/steam from my exhaust. Also, little drops of water from the exhaust as well.
When it warms, its still there, just a bit thinner.
Any ideas are appreciated!

Are you losing any coolant? If not, I wouldn't worry too much about it.

I doubt there is anything wrong and don't worry about it.
Condensation in exhaust is normal.

Starting and shutting the car off often before the engine comes to temp. will exacerbate the condensation build-up.

If the car is belching smoke and water after a half hour on a dry warm day, then I'd be concerned.
