I took a trip last may for European Delivery on a new BMW. It was a great trip. We did 900 miles in 5 days through much country that the train doesn't go (well not the same routes). Country roads, small town, autobahn, long tunnels. It was great. Stop when ever you want to eat or do whatever. Buy whatever you want and carry it around with you.

This was my first driving experience outside the US (in my brand new car ) and it was worth it all the way.

We did park in the cities (Munich, Zurich, Stuttgart, Heidleburg) and take the public transportation to avoid the parking problems. Stuttgart kinda sucked, Munich was much nicer. Check out the Romantistrasse ( a nice drive). The autobahn around Stuttgart was choked up but I live in DC where traffic is unbearable at best. Certain other autobahns were slower that others, but I managed to keep it up around 100 mph for long stretches during the day somewhere between Stuttgart and Munich. We did all travel during the day because I really didn't want to drive a brand new car at night in a foreign country. I could dig out my map if you need route suggestions.
