Confused on what to do

Add a public constructor to the GoKart.java class that allows the parameter color to be passed in. In the constructor store the argument color in the private color field. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

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

public GoKart(String mColor) { this.mColor = mColor; }
