I would be feeling the same way you are right now as well. I'll go put the miles on my new daily driver and keep the RS6 as a hobby car to drive around town. With all of the money I've spent to get the car set up to my tastes and make it perfect for me I'd be really, really bummed if it had sold. My wife's nudging me to try again and/or trade it for a new SUV for her (Range Rover Sport S/C) so I just lay low about the car and don't talk about it around her anymore. It's going to be expensive for me to keep it to the tune of a new SUV but hey, even that will be worth paying if I can keep my steath supercar.
FYI, I contacted Hagerty Insurance and they approved insuring the RS6 as an exotic hobby car without any issue with a $45K agreed replacement policy. Cost me $800 per year which is saving me almost $700 per year instead of using my standard Nationwide Insurance. Those of you using the RS6 as an extra car/hobby car may want to consider looking at Hagerty Classic Car/Exotic Car insurance. I've used them on my 65 Mustang, 71 Bronco and all of my BMW 850i cars with great results.
Still shopping wheels but I'm in no hurry.
