Hi Brett!

I believe the problem with your code is that you are using the wrong object reference. So instead of GoKartObject.getColor() use gokart.getColor()

Also you had a space between getColor and the method parenthesis. 

public class Example {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
         System.out.println("We are going to create a GoKart");
         GoKart gokart = new GoKart ("red");
         System.out.printf("New GoKart is %s", gokart.getColor() );
    }
}

Hope this helps!
