Try heading to the black forest, some great roads there. There are some good roads on the way in the Eifel region too.

How long have you got? Enought time to hit the alps in Southern Germany/northern Austria?

And don't be afraid to use Autobahns to link up the interesting bits together, saves some of the duller roads.

Here's a good site for alpine roads:
