I am definitely an introvert, and I know for a fact that people are surprised by this. I am not currently in sales, but I worked what was basically a sales job (without the commission, etc) and I had repeat customers who would actually leave and come back later if I wasn't working that day. To me, this was because I was completely interested in their needs, and didn't care about the company's needs. I told them the best deals and gave them the straight info while being pleasant to talk to. In short, yes, I think introvert salespeople come off as extroverts to their customers.
