If you look at this example https://www.gimp.org/tutorials/Layer_Masks/#selective-colorization-example It shows how you might do it using a layer mask.

If you just want to view one colour, then you can use Tintii (also as plugin in gimp) https://indii.org/software/tintii/

@Gypsie38
It would really help if you gave more information of:
Your operating system, currently shown as IOS
Version of Gimp.
otherwise some suggestions are unlikely to work.

This is an effect known as "partial or selective desaturation". Typically you duplicate the picture, change everything to grey in the top layer (Colors > Desaturate > Desaturate) then use the Erase (or better, a layer mask) to erase the grey car at the top so that the color car from the bottom layer shows through.
An example here: https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Partial-desaturation-and-other-processes-with-a-car
But you will find many tutorials on the technique, once you know what to look for.

I thank you. I did use it many years ago but stopped it because I had a message that my trying period was over.
Thank you to everyone. But, for me, it seems complex!. Anyway, I'll try, following this tuto

From memory, the tintii photoshop plugin was pay-for with a trial period. This software is long gone except if you use linux, still there in the ubuntu repo. You might find something using the internet archive. Edit: https://web.archive.org/web/20140518192800/http://www.indii.org/software/tintii/download Free trial Win / Mac

I still prefer using a layer mask to the eraser method, make a mistake switch from black FG to white FG color and paint out.
Here is a 40 second example. https://i.imgur.com/gx8o3nO.mp4

Wowww, I wanted to see this "tintii", thus doing a "sudo apt install tintii" and got the famous "tintii is already the newest version (2.10.0-2build1)."...
So I have it installed on my distro for so many years and completely forget about it, I don't recall that name
Looks cool, though, was this software a paid for photoshop only? because it 's free on Linux...
In all case thank you rich2005 for the wake up
