Aaron, you chose the same name for your 914 that I did for my 951. German for "temptress." I saw that and knew it was accurate haha
Lorelei chose me, and then when I tried to sell her, she came back to me. I'm considering changing the 951's name from "Gretchen" to "B*tch" after her last trip to the mechanic's.

Lorelei was the name of a siren in Germanic myth who lured sailors to their deaths on rocks in the Rhine river. I figured it was appropriate, and that also explains why it's synonymous with "temptress" now.
