No, it is another Adesk stupid thing... Not only Revit doesn't understand colors but it also imports everything as one object...

So, the only acceptable way - which I also wrote in Revitforum.org - is this:

1. Export from Moi3D to SAT. If we want many materials we split to as many SAT files as the Moi styles.
2. In a Revit project, not family editor, we re-combine the SAT files to one, this is not so difficult, sometimes it is easy to use reference objects that we can later delete.
3. Using Object styles we can assign materials.
4. Then we can make a group using all these SAT files, export to a file and then we can insert this as a group to all our projects...

Hi JTB - so as far as what I can tell from what you described, it would be necessary for Revit to make some improvements to their importer to make that any better.

If in the future you do find SATs from some other source going into Revit better than MoI's ones, please send me a simple example file so I can look at it and see what attributes are being used.

But there isn't much that I can do if the Revit importer just does not look at any of those kinds of attributes at all.
