M2C ED on 8/28 - Proposed Itinerary (thoughts?)

Convinced the wife I could get the car and she could get a nice EU road trip so this itinerary hopes to please the both of us. We think France, Spain, and Germany are very accessible so we are choosing to save those areas for later with the family. Looking for thoughts on the following (other than the obvious "that's a pretty busy schedule"):

8/26 9pm fly out of ORD to MUC
8/27 2pm settle in to Munich and relax for the afternoon by walking the city
8/28 8am Welt check-in 9:20am car delivery. Do the museum tour then head to Hallstatt Austria (a little driving through lower Austrian mountain region)
8/29 early afternoon head to Vienna
8/30 spend the day in Vienna
8/31 leave Vienna early for Prague
9/1 spend the day in Prague
9/2 leave prague late for Frankfurt
9/3 break in service at dealer in Frankfurt and TF at Nordschleife
9/4 drop off car early and take pm flight back to ORD

Definitely not a ton of time for relaxing but most of these routes are not too taxing. Prague is a must for wife and Nordschleife is a must for me. Budapest could be squeezed in if we took out Hallstatt or Vienna but I'm looking for a reason to dip down towards Austria alps and catch some scenery.

Any thoughts on the above based on experience?

Thanks
