Not guaranteed at all. There are not separate pools of tickets for each car, one pool of tickets that gets drawn from without replacement. The odds calculation changes with each additional ticket added to the pool.
Assuming exactly 5000 tickets are bought the odds are 1/5000.
If they do not meet the threshold for a car the worst the odds should be is 1/9999.
