/Sounds like "BOH" (as in "boat") + "lee" (as in "lead") + "doh" (as in "door")/
Someone or something moving at full speed with no signs of stopping. In Venezuela and Colombia, when someone moves like a bólido they go by so fast you barely register they were there. Works for fast drivers, fast walkers, and people who work at a relentless, unstoppable pace.
“He went past like a rocket, I did not even see his face.”
“That guy works like a machine, he does not even stop to eat.”

Tener harta cara
Having a lot of nerve or shameless audacity, doing something bold without a hint of embarrassment. Used in Costa Rica, Guatemala, and Honduras, "harta cara" is a regional intensifier that hits even harder than the standard "cara dura."
