How to create a duplicate and change a prefab

Question

I have a car prefab and I want to duplicate it and change the color of the material but whenever I do it changes the other cars color as well. How can I duplicate the car prefab and change only it's color?

Thanks.

The problem is that even if you duplicate the car prefab, both cars are using the one material, so any changes to that material will apply to both cars. You will want to make a material for each car prefab if you want to do this.

I was worried that would be the case. I think I can work around this although would have preferred not to. Thanks

Yeah, unfortunately it isn't the most convenient thing always, but it makes sense why it is made this way.
