Mine does the same thing. Its just water that condenses in the exhaust. What makes it black is all the soot that is in the exhaust. I dont think its anything to worry about other than it makes a mess on the floor.

I noticed that it doesnt do it on my car that often, so its some kind of combination between the wheather and the last time you drove your car.

Maybe someone else knows exactly what happens.

It's just condensation, nothing to worry about...
