Java constructor challenge

I am confused on this challenge, please help.

Example.java 
public class Example {

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

     new GoKart("color"); 
      System.out.printf("The result from the method is %s", getColor("GoKart"));




    }
}

Hey Sara,

public class Example {

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

        GoKart gokart = new GoKart("red");
        gokart.getColor();
    }
}

You created the object just fine, however you do need to print the object by calling the getColor method.

And use gokart.getColor() just like you did in the printf statement.
