It's ambiguous, but strictly, it means the car is newly purchased.

We call "," a comma; a semicolon is ";".
The easiest way is to place the adjective before the noun that it
qualifies:
a) He played music on the newly purchased MP3 player in his car.
b) He played music on the MP3 player in his newly purchased car.

Not sure exactly what you mean, but it's all to do with the attribution
of adjectives, I guess.
Hope this helps.
