I have stop in this question! I think my problem is in the part of set the attribute in the instance. how can I do this?

I have try to do Car = RaceCar("red", 20), but it's wrong too. please, help me.

racecar.py
class RaceCar:
    color = "red"
    fuel_remaining = 20

    def __init__(self, color, fuel_remaining, **kwargs)
        self.color = color
        self.fuel_remaining = fuel_remaining

        for attribute, value in kwargs.items():
            setattr(self, attribute, value)

It looks like you just forgot the colon at the end of the "def __init__" line.

And they don't hurt, but you don't need those static definitions of color and fuel_remaining since they get defined for the instance inside the __init__ method.
