i have an a4 with the 2.73's and i run around 1800 rpm's at 70, so i would guess just a bit less at 60 but there are no 60 mph zones around here so i'm not sure. Great for gas mileage but good lord i want 3.42's

With 3.23s auto will see 68 mph at 2K. With 3.73s they will run about 2400 at the same speed.

For comparison, this morning I was cruising on the highway in 6th at about 67-68ish mph and the RPM gauge was dead on 1500rpms.

What TheBlueKnight said: in my M6 I sit a tiny hair over 1500 with the speedo dead on 70, or a tiny hair under 70 with the tach dead on 1500 in 6th gear. Stock rear end so 3.42s

I have to go run a few errands shortly so I'll tell you what rpm an A4 (3.23) runs at 60mph when I get back

Update: My A4 with 3.23s is between 1700-1750rpms at 60mph
