Add a public method, or getter, that can be used to get the color of the go kart.

Can someone help me with this it keeps saying my code is wrong, but I dont know what to fix.

GoKart.java
public class GoKart {
public String mColor = "red";
}
public String getColor() {
  return mColor;

You're so close!

You just have to make sure that the getter method is inside of the class and use the closing brace.

public class GoKart {
  public String mColor = "red";

  public String getColor() {
    return mColor;
  }
}
