Random color for Car model in Container

Hello,

Im making an scene where I have 500+ cars on it.

 

Each model of car is beeing loaded with a "Container" to keep the main project light, I want to add random color to the CAR_Paint. Because im loading the Vehicle with a Container, I can´t use the random Material ID modifier

 

There is a way how to get random color for the material?

 

EDIT: Well, using the containers might not be a good idea, Im reopening my project and has like 20 min trying to open and the RAM is at 98%

If im using Containers, this works:

each element with carpaint is different. But because the scene is too heavy Im changing to .ASS

but this shader doesnt work, all the cars are the same color

I tried with the Operators but still didnt get the Random Colors, because i had to fix this quick I had to brute force my way out and manually set different colors.
