Default X-country drive, need help finding awesome roads!

I'm a former S2000 owner and looking for some help... I'm producing a video of a cross country drive and while we're familiar with the roads of Socal (where we're based) and the CA desert, I'd like your help with the roads of NM. What are the best, most thrilling drives?

Ideally, the drives should be close to the I-10, but this is brainstorming time, so feel free to suggest anything. With regard to the roads: the twistier the better.

Thanks in advance! I can't wait to share the finished product.

Sponsorships are still available.

Best road is around Silver City. Ill get the name of the pass and the stretch of road up through the Gila National Forest to the cliff dwelling.

That would be NM 152. 30 miles of amazing mountain twisties, starting at Silver City and ending at the Hillsboro exit on I-25 (North of Las Cruces). The pass is Emory Pass. The Cliff Dwellings are north of Silver City on HW 15. An incredible drive through dense tree cover on a road that, in some places, is as narrow as a golf-cart path.

Easy to get there on I-10: At Lordsburg take Hwy 90 to Silver City. Enjoy!
