The GMC Suburban that The Notorious B.I.G. was fatally shot in after attending a VIBE party in 1997 is up for sale. The price tag that memorabilia site Moments In Time has listed for the SUV is $1.5 million, the same price that the BMW Tupac was fatally shot in is going for.
According to a letter written to Moments In Time and shared with TMZ, the current owners of the Suburban didn’t know they were in possession of one of the greatest artifacts in Hip Hop history. They bought it from a broker the same year of Biggie’s passing because they needed a larger car for their family of six. They were informed of its significance in 2005 when investigators were working on the wrongful death trial. The owner inquired about selling the Suburban, which has 114,000 miles on it, upon hearing that the site was selling the car Tupac was shot in.
The passenger door that was shot up that fateful night on March 9 was replaced before the owners gained possession of the car. They say that LAPD has promised to return the original door panel with the bullet holes, which will go to the new owner, upon completion of the case. The last remaining evidence of the shooting is a bullet hole in the passenger seatbelt, where Biggie was riding. He died an hour after the shooting.
i guess tha bed eazy e caught aids in will be next 4 sale ( no disrespect )
Good point
Lol but good point
Omg yaaas
So, is there like a certificate of authenticity to prove that Biggie was shot in this car?
Pac was a Legend Biggie lived with his mother until he died broke . Biggie Slept on PAC couch .
Both cars should be donated to museums and preserved. But no . . . greed always wins out, sad.
Hip Hop has a lot of death to be exploited (Diddy is the king of it) Surprised hustlers havent thought of charging tourists to get their picture taken in the car they were shot in or the alley Big L was Murdered down
I Agree, Its Some Sick Shit Bruh. Why Would This Go Up For Sale in The First Place. This Car Is A Sad/Tragic Piece Of Hip-Hop History That No One Should Make Off…Period
Is this a joke? A middle class white guy from the suburbs bought the car Biggie was brutally murdered in as a family wagon for his wife and kids? How the fuck does that even happen?
He got it cheap?
Stay tuned up next on the auction block the styrofoam cup pimp c was drinking out of before his death…. when will this sell our culture stop…
Everyone here making an issue about how the culture is being exploited lol. Vehicles and other memorabilia related to the deaths of celebrities is nothing new. It might be new to you, but people have been buying and collecting this stuff way before us. If you don’t want greed to win out, the sale is available to anyone. Buy it and stash it away to make sure no one’s getting exploited. Also, buy every Tupac album that was released after his death lol.
114k miles after 20 years?! , I see why its goin for 1.5 million
Imagine some crazy rich white boy buying it just so he can sit in it naked and masturbate “aaah yeah the spirit of Biggie is touchin my dick aaaah yeah” i’m lookin at you Martin Shkreli
