The Hail Mary rapper was shot after stopping at a traffic light after attending a Mike Tyson fight.
Another vehicle pulled up along them, and the occupants opened fire. Tupac was hit numerous times while Suge escaped with minor injuries.
One of rap music's greatest icons, Tupac eventually passed away in hospital from the injuries he sustained in the shooting.
The bullet holes have been repaired and the vehicle repainted in its original colour according to the showroom.
"It has completely been restored to the condition it was in before his death," a sign at the showroom reads.
The killers have never been brought to justice.
Proof of ownership
According to the sellers, it is the first time the vehicle has been put up for sale or display since Tupac's passing.
“The new owner will be provided with documentation proving ownership and history,” the sign reads.
Jada Pinkett and Tupac
In July, Outlawz Immortalz founding member Napoleon said Jada Pinkett asked Tupac not to beat up the actor.
According to Napoleon, Tupac told him:
"Jada going to contact me like and tell me that I should not do anything to Will Smith.”
The Red Table Talk hostess, on the other hand, dominated social media with a never-before-seen poem written by her famous friend.
