I'm looking for suggestions on what the best recommended pinball's are for the price of $1,500-$2,500.
Any themed pinball great for kids 5-15yrs old.....racing theme preferred, but any will do.
What do you guys think? Let me hear ya!!!
TIA
Quoted from mbaumle:Any System 11 game would fit the bill, I'd say. Specifically, High Speed, Taxi, Police Force, F-14 come to mind.
Good recommendation. I'd say High Speed fits the bill nicely. You'll likely get your money back out of it if you sell it.

Might be able to pick up a Nascar for that money. More modern, definitely kid-friendly, and might hold their attention better than some of the classics.
Here are a few good options...
- Getaway - High Speed 2
- Stern Nascar
- Demolition Man
- Terminator 2
You can probably find a nice Terminator 2 for $2000-2500. That game is always a hit, even with non-pinheads.
Not racing themed, but you can pick up a really nice Jack-Bot at the higher end of your range. I think it's one of the best bang-for-the-buck pins out there.
Taxi is a pin that kids and adults alike really seem to gravitate towards as the theme is fun and the rules are easy to pickup. If racing is your thing though NASCAR is also a good choice.
It's not racing themed, but my first game (2 years ago) was space station. System 11, rated just outside of the top 100, 3 ball multiball, etc. I just traded it a few months ago and really having it in my collection (the kids are also not happy about that decision). Would definitely recommend.
Racing theme NASCAR or HS2 or both!
I dig those those games!
Sorcerer. Great shots, great rules, great sounds, great artwork, you'll have no problem selling it later.

I'll second Sorcerer just because I really want one. 
Otherwise, as many others have suggested, T2 and Getaway both sound like good options based on your criteria.
