Thanassis, looks like a pretty cool route and I wish I could be doing it as well! Will you be sticking to the Autobahns/Autostrada/National Autoroutes, or secondary roads? I know on the leg from Berlin to Munich, you can cut through the Thüringer Wald (Forest) between Eisenach and Coburg, and then shoot down through Nürnberg to Munich. Nice windy roads, and small villages.
Greg,
Thanks for the tips. You have just planted some ideas into my head. I think I'll mix in some secondary roads and Thüringer Wald is a perfect choice.
I once stayed at an inn just south of Eisenach owned by a major wine producer. In fact the inn was right next to the facility.
We were given the opportunity to taste all their wines ... which is probably why I can't remember the name of the producer. 
If we do go this way, I'll also look out for the Thüringer Bratwurst vendor in Lutherplatz in Eisenach ... and give him your regards.

OH, and if you go through Munich, stop and have a latte macchiato or Espresso at the Café Luigi Tambosi on the Odeonsplatz (right in front of the Hall of Generals)
If Odeonsplatz is also called the Marinerplatz (sp?), then I know the establishment you mention ... and you are right about the ... settings.
Thanks again for the "food for thought".
