I checked and... unupgradable is not an official word, but many use it.

Kidding aside, the double car scenario makes it impossible to upgrade or change your cars colour. It works initially, but if you close the game or even just leave it in the background for too long it's all gone. The only way to make upgrades stick is to do the following;

-Pick a time when you don't need your device for the entire upgrade period

-Plug your device in because it will need juice

-Buy the upgrades

-Immediately enter a drag race but don't leave the start line, just sit there and let the other car go

If you stay there for the entire upgrade period and your upgrades will work. You can just reitre from the race when you are 100% sure that you waited long enough. For 12 hour upgrades this isn't horrible but for those 1 or 2 day upgrades it just doesn't work. I did try this with my Enzo, but then undid the upgrades as I realized it may have messed up my ticket.

One plus to this is you get that much closer to your 2400 hours of play time for 50 gold...

I believe that this is a direct result of the new "you have to race online" format. Just like when you service damaged cars offline and they don't service, then suddenly they are all done when you go online after some time; this glitch is related to that black hole of time.
