This very issue vexed the hell out of me for quite some time, here is what I found.
It turns out my thermostat was sticking, and that would allow the car to get very hot, at some point the extreme pressure of overheating coolant ruptured one of the O gaskets under the water manifold, which would allow the coolant to escape in the form of steam.
A stuck thermostat is a bugger to diagnose. Especially if it is intermittent.
The next time it overheats, pop the hood, and look under the intake spider on the passenger side. Do you see steam?
