Yep, standard isn't an issue as I'm used to them.
We're not staying in Amsterdam. Just using it or Brussels as the airport for that portion of the trip (depending on airfare/rental prices). We will be spending several days in the general area (Amsterdam, Brussels, Bruges, Hague, etc) and staying with family near Antwerp.
We plan on being in Munich for 2 nights, jus not sure if it'll be 2 nights immediately or split up. Definitely not a bad idea to just use public transit the first day (or 2) and pick up a car on our way out of the city en route to Salzburg.
Thank you for the info on Paris. We were leaning towards just using metro there as it'll mostly just be sight-seeing in the city with a couple tours.

I have rented cars in France and Italy in recent years. Liability insurance came automatically with the car and any other insurance, such as collision, I got for free from my credit card company.
Get an international driver’s license in the US before you leave. You can get them from AAA on Causeway Blvd even if you are not a member.
Definitely do not get a rental car while you are in Paris because it is not necessary and parking and traffic are nightmares. I rented one in Paris but drove straight to Normandy.
I just got back from Paris. We took the metro everywhere we couldn’t walk to unless it was raining in which case we took a cab. Easy.
