Agreed, I was hyper transparent with all of my car sales including the Jag and it worked in my favor. Being a salesperson by trade though, I wouldn't say I tried to talk any potential buyers out of a sale ha. It was more that the transparency gave them a comfort level that I knew what I was talking about and cared for the car.
I take the same approach when I sell a watch so that there are no surprises.
