Now, if the E-Tron RS was the same price, I think I'd be willing to give it a go. On top of that, I can't help but consider resale values, where the Q8s seem to be holding very close to MSRP and the high-level Taycans (most comparable and likely best indicator for the E-Tron) are, well, not... So I see this as a relatively low risk way to have a new toy and can scratch that EV itch some other time in the future.

Sounds like we're in a similar boat... Almost, but not quite.
Obviously the RSQ8 is a sick car, but is there a tiny part of you that looks at the side profile and thinks Dodge Caliber SRT4 haha?
