Not sure what part you are stuck on so I decided to redo the challenge myself and this worked for me. Try putting your constructor above your getColor method or use this.color instead of naming your member variable mColor.

class GoKart {
  private String color = "red";

  public GoKart(String color){
    this.color = color;
  }
  public String getColor() {
    return color;
  }
}
