You can get clear liquid from not running it long enough for the pipes to heat up, or from the air conditioner. No worries. You would know if it was coolant.

Welcome to the forum. We need pictures of you new car!

Tim is probublly spot on. Nothing to worry about as long as it is just plain old water. Coolant leaks generally are further back, near the rear wheel

I also sometimes get some dripping inside under the dash as condensation on the ac duct

Now if your AC was not on, it may be something else

Front drain maybe became un-clogged ?
Touch and smell test. Small ( Very small ) dab on the fingertip smell it . If you don`t smell coolant taste it. If it taste sweet its coolant. If not it`s water. Oh..do you own a cat by the way ?
May want to just guess then.:barf:
