Death Row Records' 1996 BMW Tupac Shakur was shot in...
  1996 BMW 750iL - The Death Row Records Vehicle Tupac Shakur Was Shot In
This is the actual 1996 BMW 750iL that Tupac Shakur was riding in on the night of September 7, 1996. The car was leased by Death Row Records and driven that night by Marion "Suge" Knight. Few objects in American music history carry this weight, and none of them have ever been available to own.
The shooting occurred at approximately 11:15 p.m. Pacific, shortly after Shakur and Knight left the Mike Tyson-Bruce Seldon fight at the MGM Grand. Stopped at the light at East Flamingo Road and Koval Lane, the BMW was fired on from an adjacent vehicle. Shakur was struck four times by .40-caliber rounds and died six days later at University Medical Center. He was 25.
Provenance and documentation. Celebrity Cars Las Vegas has held this vehicle in continuous, documented custody and is the only party authorized to sell it.

Condition. The car has undergone a comprehensive restoration returning it to its pre-September 1996 condition, including a fresh coat of paint. The wheels are correct to the style fitted on the night of the shooting. A small exterior indentation remains, believed to correspond to one of the impact...
