I have no intention to sell the car in the future ... and if I need to, I’m willing to accept a loss. This is purely a pleasure car to take out when the weather is nice, and possibly a cross country road trip.
There’s no guarantee that it’s a better car. Furthermore, because of the low miles it may have plastic or rubber parts that are dried out and need replacement from sitting whereas they may be done already on a car that was driven more. You’ve just got to look closely and assess.

Do not trust a dealer ppi of their own car. That is just a starting point. Get an jndekendwnt shop to do another one on your dime. I’m still saying grey car based on cost and use. Anything under 100k is low miles on these cars.
