Default high revving

I just purchased a 1999 a4 quattro and it seems to rev abnormally high above 60 mph. Is this normal or does anyone know what may be causing this? Thanks.

Default What is high revving? My car runs ~3000 rpm at 60

Big difference from my prior car which ran at about 1500 at 65. (6 spd though)
