$160 now actually. There are companies that will expedite the process for you if you don't mind mailing your passport to a third party. Costs about $100 extra which is way less than what you're proposing. Also if you're from the US you can enter Brazil between June 1 2016 and September 18 2016 and stay for up to 90 days with no visa due to the Olympics - no need for Olympics ticket either.
