(CNN)Police in the southern Brazilian state of Santa Catarina have raided a clandestine factory manufacturing bootleg luxury vehicles.

Officials from the Santa Catarina Civil Police's Investigative Unit seized eight semi-assembled replicas of Ferraris and Lamborghinis in Monday's raid, according to a police press release.

The factory was found in Santa Catarina state, southern Brazil.
Police said the replicas were being offered through social media for between 180,000 Brazilian reals ($48,000) and 250,000 Brazilian reals ($66,000), a fraction of the list price for an original vehicle. According to motoring website motor1.com, the starting price for a Ferrari is around $215,000.

Tools, molds, fibers and frames used to manufacture the cars were also seized during the raid, police said.

The shop was owned by a father and son, who were both arrested and face criminal charges for falsifying commercial property. The pair are thought to be the largest manufacturers of bootleg luxury vehicles in Brazil.

Doubtful. It would have been everywhere, just like the fake Jordans.

Fake Jordans are mass produced and imported wholesale.
These knock-off Lamborghini and Ferrari cars are made one by one on order it seems.

I cant see why Duane have an issue with this as when I brought up replica watches being sold on this website as being originals my posts were deleted- maybe people now understanding what i was saying years ago- or maybe it not fraud if its custom-made or via a power seller paying their fees?
