Paint colour query

I have just looked at the paint code chart in the How To links and the colour it gives for my code was only available during 1997.

However my car was registered in 1996.

Paint code is CGE

Now I have an even bigger issue.

When I enter the VIN in a VIN decoder it tells me it's a 2011 model with front wheel drive and a 2.5 ltr V6 engine.
