Possessive suffixes for nouns are:
(i)m - my
(i)n - your
(i)miz - our
See the full list here
The i is in brackets because when the noun ends in a vowel the i is dropped. Of course these are subject to vowel harmony.
Here are a few examples:
araba-im = arabam = my car
araba-in = araban = your car
köpek-im = köpeğim = my dog
cevap-imiz = cevabımız = our answer
uçurum-in = uçurumun = your cliff
Hope that helps

The proper sentence is this:
"Senin araban ne renk."
Now we have seen what a proper sentence looks like. Can we make it shorter by hiding the personal possessive adjective? Yes, of course we can:
"Araban ne renk?"
This is the shorter version of the one above. It is good to learn the full version before you start to make them shorter.
