I was astonished when I saw them in a red car instead of green.

Both are correct. The difference in meaning is small. "astonished to..." is more common, I would think.

How about this one? I was astonished seeing them in a red car instead of green. is that also gives same meaning

To me, this one doesn't seem quite so well formed. It would be understood to mean the same though.
