No idea where I'm going wrong. Need to create new GoKart object where parameter is color.

What am I doing wrong? I thought I did what the challenge was asking, but I suppose not. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Example.java 
public class Example {
  public class GoKart {
  private String mColor;

  public GoKart(String color) {
   mColor = color;
  }

  public String getColor() {
    return mColor;
    }
  }
    public static void main(String[] args) {

    }
}

Hi Paul,

This just needs you to create a new instance of a GoKart using the constructor. It is assuming that you're aware of the GoKart class and its constructors.

So you just need one line of code after the println() statement:

public class Example {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("We are going to create a GoKart");
        GoKart redKart = new GoKart("Red");
    }
}

I hope that helps.

Steve.
