Haha, you know, I was just goofing around on Google Maps an hour ago myself. I found my car parked in the side street by my house. I was surprised that Google street viewed my part of the neighborhood.

I would assume not, unless the area changes a lot. The point of the street view isn't to find your car, its so you can see what the area looks like so HOPEFULLY you don't get lost

I saw a Google Maps Prius with a camera just 2 weeks ago on Ocean Ave. in SF, so I would assume that they update often.
