Tupac Shakur's 1996 Hummer Sells At Auction

One lucky buyer will be living his "ambitionz" as a rider of Tupac Shakur’s last-owned vehicle.

The 1996 vehicle — purchased by the rapper less than a month before his still-debated death — sold for a whopping $337,145, RRAuction.com said.

The black SVU entered a week-long online bidding war on May 12 and was expected to fetch at least $100,000.

The extravagant purchase came with a license plate reading "YAKNPAK," which honored Shakur and the late rapper Yaki ‘Prince’ Kadafi. The 20-year-old ride also includes two copies of the vehicle's registration listed to Shakur.

The latest owner of the pricey vehicle is an anonymous buyer, reportedly from the Midwest and a huge Tupac collector and fan, TMZ reported.

Since the “Hit Em Up” rapper was killed in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas in 1996, his Hummer H1 has gone through a few different owners.

In 2007, it raked in $200,000 on Ebay — years after being raffled by BET in a “Picture Me Rollin” sweepstakes in 2003 and then sold back to Shakur’s family.

Twenty years after the 25-year-old’s controversial death, his name is still a big draw for his memorabilia. CDs featuring never-before-heard music recently sold for $250,000.

The rap icon remerged in headlines early May, when his mother, Afeni Shakur, died at age 69.
