Maybe because "My new car" does not imply that the car itself has never been used?
Just that it's YOUR new car.

That's one thing I'm very curious about: is there a way in english to differentiate between "(my new) car" (a used car which is new to me) and "(my) new car" (a new car which is mine)?

Usually you'd say "brand new" to signal that it's from the factory. It is quite ambiguous otherwise.
