ac condensation inside of the car?

Guys,
I was driving my cab top down in 80+ weather this weekend, with ac on. Felt cold water drops on my right foot, assuming from the ac, is this normal?

Should not be. I would take it to the dealer or look in the foot well yourself. Often times there is a drip tube that gets knocked off or disconnected when this happens...

Could be condensation on the lines, but even then... shouldn't be enough to drip.

this is NOT normal, the tube are disconnected or blocked.

I cant believe a dealer would say this.

Normal eh? I guess it is normal to run out of gas when the gauge reads 1/4, also normal that the window down button doesn't always work, normal that the muffler is scheduled to fall off after 25,000 miles. Amazing so many issues with a $100k + car . . .

At least they fixed the muffler. I simply rationalize this away by thinking that they spent all the money on making the drivetrain the best. Seriously Porsches have historically been one of the worst cars in terms of cabin comfort and electronics - it's not like this is something new.
