Using the Porsche/Carrera Script or Logo is dangerous as you are attempting to produce a product and offer it for sale/profit even if you have no intent to make a profit. If I was a Porsche lawyer my job would be to protect my company. They are not the "bad guys" here, they are doing their jobs and preventing people, even though well meaning, from stealing from their company.
Carrera/Porsche are Trademarks and are legally protected. A Trademark is a word, name, logo, design or phrase that distinguishes a specific product in the marketplace. Even use of the Carrera word with that specific font can be considered infringement on the Trademark and subject to litigation by the Porsche Company.
Be very, very careful here. Seriously! Sorry to throw a blanket on your fire. Good luck.
P.S. I am not a lawyer, but I was a publisher for a while and I could tell you stories you would not believe...you must be very cautious. The best thing to do is call or write Porsche and get something in writing.
