2004 Lexus IS300 5-speed auto. 70mph at 3000rpm.
2006 Pontiac Vibe AWD 4-speed with overdrive. 70mph at 2900rpm. My friends Lexus GS300 with the same engine and transmission, just longer final gear, turns at 2600rpm at 70mph, and even though his car is heavier - he get's better mpg than I do, but only on the highway.
 
Flat ground with torque converter locked my 2007 Jeep Compass turns about 2400 rpm but since it's a CVT it likes to rev up even on small inclines
 
2004 Honda S2000 3700 RPM @70MPH in 6th, 4600 RPM in 5th, 5600 RPM in 4th, 7200 RPM in 3rd. I did redline(8000 RPM) in 3rd but never redline in 4th or higher.

2000 MB E430 2400 RPM @70MPH
 
The 2000 Camry is 2400 RPMs at 70 mph.

My 97 Camry was 2500-2600 RPMs, I think it was because it had smaller 195/70-14 tires, the 2000 has 205/65-15 tires so almost an inch taller.
 
70 MPH with my 2015 GTI with 6-speed DSG is 2100 or 2150 RPM.

The 2003 Jetta TDI 5-speed manual is 2500 RPM.
