Doesn't work for me, still the same issue.
Alright, thank you for having tried and for this confirmation.
I don't think the issue is related to the code itself because you all got the game activated or at least the confirmation.
I know the Original poster has tried to update the graphic card drivers and I would like to ask you to try this as well.
I just post below the system requirements but I am sure your system reaches these requirements.

| HARD DRIVE: | At least 7GB free space |
| DVD-ROM: | 8x Speed |
| VIDEO CARD: | DirectX® 9.0c Compatible 3D-accelerated 512 MB video card with Shader Model 3.0 or higher* |
| *Supported Video Cards are NVidia GeForce 8 Series or higher, ATI HD3 Series or higher. Multiplayer requires one disc per PC and a 512 Kbps or faster connection. One player per PC. 2-12 Players. | |
| SOUND CARD: | DirectX compatible |
| DIRECTX: | 9.0c |
| INPUT: | Keyboard, Mouse, Dual Analog Gamepad |
Hey everyone, I got mine to work. Download the game through origin, then go into the origin games folder, then shift 2 unleashed, then change the name of the shift2u application and then launch the application and the game should run. I changed mine to shift2 and it works now. Somebody suggested it to me and I have no idea why it works.

This is indeed interesting. Has anyone else tried this workaround? If so please post a comment below.
Thanks for this information bradcq.
If this is working I would assume the repair install function works as well on Origin, this is maybe due to a missing file.
When you rename a file the system detects an anomaly, and replaces it downloading the missing part.
Maybe this is what happened here.
I used that work around, it meant the I couldn't run NFS through Origin.
I got an update from Nvidia this morning for drivers (320.18). My game now works flawlessly, including all DLC. It's something in the Nvidia drivers I believe.
It works with your solution. Thank you very much!
