Yes - asset forfeiture does not always occur at the time of arrest.
A home, boat or other property owned by the defendant, may be seized during the trial or as part of the sentence.

Yes, if they have filed the necessary paperwork for an asset forfeiture they can and are still within the states time limit. Every state has a statute that spells out the time limit the police have to go after assets that are deemed to be used in the commission of a crime or gotten from the proceeds of a crime.

Although they normally seize the vehicle immediately, they can do so later with a court order.
Without more information, no one here can give you an accurate answer. Your best bet is to take it up with your attorney, or the prosecuting attorney if you don't have one.
