Yes, like pronouncing the word Porsche, this has been asked many times and speculated on many times. I don't think anyone really knows absolutely for sure. The 356 had a Super Carrera model and Porsche liked to play around with the letters on the various models after that. In '69 thru '73 there were the T E and S models, plus the Carrera RS (one year only with a 2.7 MFI). The S continued on in '74 as a normal car with a 2.7 CIS and the Carrera was a 3.0 MFI car sold ROW (rest of world). In '78 we saw the first SC. Then in '83 or '84 came the 3.2 Carrera that replaced the 3.0 SC and the 3.0 Carrera had long ceased to be.
You're guess is as good an anyone's.
BTW, the 356 had a Carrera GS and GT and in '64/65 had a Super in the 356 C series. It's not possible to find a Super Carrera written as such even with the 356's. so my original statement is not really accurate. As I said, your guess....
