It's kinda a big place. Don't expect the Autobahn to be all unlimited all the time, and if you're going in the winter, you'll be on snow tires.

Are you flying into Frankfurt? It's the logical point to start if you're going to the N'Ring. A reasonably quick side trip out of there is to go to Sinsheim, especially if you're already going to go to Stuttgart. You'll also pass through Heidelberg.

Another good trip is to run down to Freiburg and then onto Zurich for the day. Just remember that Switzerland has strictly enforced speed limits. You can also push onto Chamonix if you're there for ski season.
