Actually, if I recall correctly, if I rob you of your Porsche, steal it from you or illegally take it, you will get it back when the court is finished with it as evidence because these are criminal acts. If I defraud you of your Porsche, because this is a civil matter, you must recover it through an action in tort. This is not legal advice, however because motor vehicle law and different jurisdictions.
That falls in line with what I remember; your vehicle was stolen, you weren’t defrauded of it. The court (and the court’s creature, the police) were finished with it as evidence and you got it back. It was a criminal procedure as with a robbery or a taking.
As I noted, motor vehicles (and real estate) are often treated differently from other kinds of property such as, for instance, cash or jewelry.
