(first off, if I offended the owner(s) of the photograph's I use I do really appologize. I needed them for reference only, and this will not be mass produced or made a profit on. School use only)

ok here we go..

My school project this quarter was to design a new product for an existing company. I chose Porsche, and a re birth for our beloved car the 914. The car as is = no news for the past 30 years. Then we have this board which makes "new" cars all the time. New ideas, different approaches etc. My idea is not a new or original idea from my own side. I leave that to you guys out there. But since my car is going through this change me as well would like to be able to put an emblem on the back of my car when its done. Some has the 914-4, 914-6, 914-8, why can't the WRX have its own symbol in the back?! Well, I made one I think is suiteble for the nature of the car. Its a 30 year old car but an (almost) brand new engine. I went with the modern 911 script with some modifications to it. took me a while to get it as I wanted it. And here ya go! ( I will make an actual one for my car when its time for that, think neo had a place?!)

My view of how the 914 - X would be presented:

Very cool.

But don't let the lawyers from Porsche see it. They have really clamped down on people using the logos and name in the last few years. But your not trying to make money from it so you should be OK.

well, I'm hoping using it here on this site won't get me in trouble. Since I do give credit to Porsche in my design breaif etc, I'm set on that part. I'm using their Logo and since its for school its ok.

Wow, its 5.05 am and I am presenting this at 8 am.. I need some sleep before that!

hope more people will like it. And i will make a real one for my car, try to stop me papa Porsche (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/lol2.gif)

I wouldn't worry at all really. I'm sure students use thier name all the time in things like this.

Sleep? Red Bull and a Mountain Dew will get ya there on time. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

Good Luck.

I wouldn't worry about using the Porsche name. When I was in Design school we would do all sorts of cannabalisim to all sorts of "future" cars.

Nice job!

It went great, the professor told me.. you own a porsche? wow, i didnt know that (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif)

well he like the design and said it gave him the feeling he expected to feel when owning a porsche. So I guess the A+ reflects that he liked it (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool_shades.gif)

If you want to buy the car (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) it will be out in a store near you next year. As for the emblem, I will most likely put a WRX (subary) engine in it, and will do as NEO did.. actually get my own emblem.. (any other suby guys want to use one?)

there are exceptions to copyright infringement (called "fair use") when the use is for, among other things, educational purposes.

Of course, that's a gross oversimplification of the law, but what do you expect for one sentence!

Oh, I didn't realize that you obtained porsche's permission to use their copyrighted material (their crest, for example) on your project that you published and have disseminated.

my bad.

haha, thats what i thought..

well, as you said, for school use i am allowed. since we were simulating that porsche DID give me this job and said, Cris, we are launching the 914 X next year, make it look good.. if you know what i mean.. copyright is only if you were to use it else where (like this website) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/owned.gif) but i wanted to show you guys, cause it MAY be someone out there doing a suby conversion and would like a rear emblem like you other V8, /6, /4 guys..

dont get me wrong, i can only use this as a portfolio piece (if i decide to) since it needs to be put into context. otherwise we would have thousands of weird companys and its not easy to determain if the design fits with the company etc...

(so what did that german guy say on my answering machine, ich bin *&^%$# PORSCHE.. sweet, i got a job?!) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/av-943.gif)
