Print out using System.out.printf the color of the new object, using the getColor method. Help!!!

I am not sure what I am doing wrong, and accidentally deleted some code.... I need some help!

Example.java 
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("The Go-Kart's color is %s",goKart.getColor());
}

You just put the your last statement outside the main() method and it needs to be inside:

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("We are going to create a GoKart");
        GoKart goKart = new GoKart("red");
        System.out.printf("The Go-Kart's color is %s",goKart.getColor());
    }
