Ferrari 458 Speciale South Africa lions

The Ferrari 458 Speciale with lions at the Bobbejaansberg Nature Reserve in South Africa
Ferrari made sure they were the mane attraction at a safari park in South Africa this week — by unveiling their 458 Speciale beside two LIONS.
The car made its debut in the country at the Bobbejaansberg Nature Reserve among the local pride of big cats.
Ferrari said the car “did not roar as loudly as it could” in order not to put the kings of the savannah to shame.
The Ferrari 458 Speciale is the firm’s highest performance V8 in history. It can do 0-62mph in under 3.0 seconds with a top speed of over 201mph.
The Speciale has increased engine output over the standard 458, producing 597hp at 9,000rpm and 398 lb/ft of torque. The aerodynamics were perfected in cooperation with italian design house Pininfarina, providing second-to-none performance at the height of performance.
The Ferrari 458 Speciale was unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2013.

                                  Yamaha YZF-R1                                           Loved by every bike enthusiast, feared by other liter class bike manufacturers. That, in a nutshell, is the Yamaha YZF-R1. When launched in 1998, it turned the whole biking industry on its head. It brought a slew of revolutionary racetrack technology, never seen before on a production bike. All this and more, in a beautifully sharp package. Its engine produced 127.8 bhp at the rearwheel. It pulled away so ferociously, that it could give the V8 engined  BOSS HOSS BIKES a run for their money . But while Boss Hoss bikes are big and imposing, this one is more on the beautiful side. It might not be as exclusive as a CONFEDERATE  motorcycle, but it is a legend. ...

So, when the representatives at a Harley new model press briefing mention styling first, it should come as no surprise.
