Hi Giorgios,

use %s instead of %d. getColor() gets you a String, so you need a proper String formatter (%s).

%d is for decimals like ints and so on

Happy coding

Grigorij

When you complete a task, don't change the existing code unless the challenge asks for it. That way the "oops" message does not appear. 

public class Example {

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