Depends... if the Subaru stuff was used.. it would not. Hell it could be plain water with water wetter in it.
And if it only say a ounce or so at a time it may not be enough to give it color.

I believe your car has the blue subaru coolant in it. Either way, bring it in so we can verify everything is ok and nothing major is leaking.

Thanks

Do you have a front mount? If you have the intercooler sprayer for the TMIC disconnected, and the hose is lower the then reservoir in the trunk it will siphon all of the water out and it will leak out right about where you are describing.

Happened to me a few times before I realized what it was.

the same thing used to happen in my 04 sti when i first bought it. i found out that id the intercooler spray with my knee on accident every time id get out the car, and it wasnt adjusted properly when i got my new hood so the water would spray down.
