puddle of water under the car when idling

hey guys, picked up a 07 vantage,
when im idling the car, it creates a puddle of water underneath the car...the location i think is near the front, there is a gap space at the front skid plate? (not sure what you call that plate , it covers the front end underneath the car, i think the water comes out from the retangular gap)
is the normal? should i worry?
thanks

Is the water clear (without any coolant)? Most likely it's simply condensation from the a/c unit.

I put mine up on a 4 post lift after driving and always see the clear ac condensation dripping. Nothing to worry about.

thanks guys
my bad, i just remmebered that i washed the front lower grill, i use water to try to get all the bugs out from the rad....i think some water migh trap inside the front end...and i havent move the car since the wash, and i checked this morning, i parked the car whole night and hasnt notice any water drops..
i think it might have just been the left over water, when its idling, some kind of force push the water out from underneath, thats my guess,
