No, of course not. You can get it back. Contact an attorney. Feel free to email me and tell which county and police department.

A car can be seized if the police believe probable cause exist as to the existence of a crime and to the issue of whether the car is likely to yield evidence of that crime. A judge must sign a warrant for them to do so.
