Now I'm baffled...

Things have been great (no rain) for days. Today was 56 degree and clear, but I went out to my car tonight there was condensation inside the windows. Nothing appears wet and the only thing I can think of is that I washed a clear floor mat and placed it in the car at 2 PM. I thought it was completely dry, but....

Am I crazy or what???

Okay, take mats out of car, drop the top roll down the windows and park in the sun for a few hours...let it dry out! I don't think you are giving it enough chance/time to dry out. Try this and let's get back to baseline with no wet things that man created. Then we can figure out if there is new moisture occuring.

Thanks...although one issue is in play. I'm in Seattle, it's December and the sun won't be seen until next year

Seriously, thanks for all of the tips. I've felt around, sniffed for smells, check for wet (or previously wet) spots and found none. The car is very clean and when I went outside today, the condensation was gone. Last night it was cold, dry and damp. Today it is cold, wet and damp.

I'm hoping it is something I'm doing or missing...

With that said, I'm going to remove the mats and perhaps try something like DAMP RID to help dry things out. I also contacted the dealer.

BTW - I love this freakin car. I waited nearly three years to find the one I like and I finally did. Now, if I can get it to stop sweating I'd be set
