The Black Canyon is a pretty dramatic sight. I suggest driving to the bottom from the South Rim access as well (just be prepared to be in 1st gear and still riding the breaks the whole way down).

I'd make sure to drive across Red Mountain Pass between Ouray and Silverton. Stunning. The old mining ruins are a fun sight as well.

ETA: Lake City is a great, tiny little town with tons of varying levels of offroading and hiking nearby. Engineer Pass and Uncompahgre Peak (the tallest peak in the San Juan Mountains) are nearby.
