Hundreds of dollars would do as a bare minimum, but to fully keep up you would need thousands of dollars(*) Here I'm doing some math for the last 3 updates, 6.6 to 7.0.5:

For 18 consecutive weeks we've had 19 cars. Total cost to upgrade them all amounted to 11303 gold coins. So an average upgrade cost per one car equals 595 gold. 52 cars per year (actually there's probably going to be more): you need 30940 gold coins a year only to upgrade new cars. This is roughly $3100 to pay.

(*yes I know, you could also watch ads 3 hours every day and farm on Le Mans 8 hours every day and then you wouldn't have to pay that much... well, no comment).
