Looking similar, but it is not a Kodiak.

Might as well ask the stupid question... It's not a Mercedes then?!

Or built using the Kodiak as a base/their molds perhaps? I see the differences that appear to point towards a more faithful replica of the C111 concept, but the shape is really very similar to the F1.

The puzzle car as well as the Kodiak are both replicas of the C111, so the similarity is naturally. If you look closely, you can tell some differences. According to my source the puzzle car's body was built from scratch.

Correct, one more point for you. The car is powered by a turbocharged 3.3-litre Renault engine.
