Hi Logan,

The second challenge asks you to set the instance variable of color to whatever is passed into the constructor. The third challenge asks you to remove the "red" initialization from the instance variable declaration.

So we have this:

class GoKart {
  private String color;

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

  public String getColor() {
    return color;
  }
}
