У меня нет новой машины.

Does it mean that I have a car, but it isn't NEW?
Or does it mean total absence?
Or both depending on context?

Both depending on context.

it seems like the question would be: do you have a new car? i mean if you had no car, why would you bother to add new

Yeah.

. But if you don't have a car, but want a new one?
