I bought this car in November and I have put approx. 650miles, and over half of those were driving it back from bristol TN to MO. Should I start driving it more or is there a way to get rid of it all together. I have read the lung mustard thread and you might as well be talking in german. Any ideas will be GREATLY appreciated

condensation is normal, the rx-8's have a real bad time with it. looks like goop from off-white mayo looking mess to a gerber babyfood green sometimes on them in color. drive the **** out of your car for a change. and it does seem to be weather related like Go48 said, colder weather it is more apparent. also like he said short trips can cause it, car not warming up enough to get rid of it.
