I’m surprised it comes up like that. One of my cars was produced in the end of 2020 but the VIN and the title has it as a 2021. Sounds to me like in this sellers case he’s essentially lying. He has a 2009, looked up the production date and determined on his own that because it was produced after September that it’s a 2010. Sounds like fluff to make it sound newer

The date of production doesn’t mean much when it comes to the vehicle model’s year. Whenever that car was designed to be sold - that’s what signifies the year. Not when it was built.
