I have no experience in either of the German tours, but I've also been looking at those.
Not sure what route(s) you're planning from/to Wyoming and PCH. There are some places I'd highly recommend that you see. These were part of an 7K mile trip we made from Ontario to the Pacific Coast Highway a year and a half ago.
I-70 is a really scenic (and on some stretches pretty isolated drive)
Travelling along I-15, in south western Utah it's easy to visit both Zion National park and

Bryce Canyon National Park

In Nevada, just off I-15, Valley of Fire makes for a great drive.

Hoover Dam is always an impressive place to visit.
Then there's Death Valley for a hot time.

Then you can visit Yosemite National park which we unfortunately missed because fires closed the roads while we were there.
Definitely take in Carmel-by-the-Sea and 17 Mile Drive

Of course there are lots of nice stops, curves and scenery out of this world along PCH.

You want to find a nice place to stay right along PCH.
We booked a place in Pismo Beach that was on a cliff overlooking the ocean where we enjoyed a fabulous sunset while sipping on our favourite beverages on the balcony.

Enjoy planning your trip. There's soooooo much fabulous scenery in that part of the country.
