I need help seeing where I went wrong with this code
public class Example {
public static void main(String[] args) {
new Color("RED");
System.out.printf("The new GoKart color is %s\n ", getColor());
System.out.println("We are going to create a GoKart");
}
}

Class (Capitalized by convention) Variable to hold the instance of the class (camelCase) and you need to set it equal to the newly created instance. In this case, our kart takes a single parameter, color. We can create an instance of our GoKart class as follows:
GoKart goKart = new GoKart("red");
Now that we have the instance saved in the variable (goKart), we can perform methods on it using the following convention:
goKart.getMethod();
In this case, you need to get the color using the getColor() method. Hope this helps! Good luck and have fun studying Java!
