I'm looking for recommendations for a new pin in the $2,500-$3,000 range. I'm going to be selling my RCT (I've had it for almost 5 years) and want something else...

should be your GOOOAAAAAAAALLLLL!.
fixed that for you
Don't overlook Data East titles - some of them can still be bought fairly cheap compared to other similar machines. One of our favorites is Laser War - fun with great light show and still can be had for under $1500 if you are not in a rush. That would give you $1000 to $1500 for a second machine!
If you only have room for one and want to spend closer to your $2500 Whirlwind, BSD, and WCS 94 are all solid choices. Pin-Bot is another great choice that can be bought for $1500 to $1800 if you are looking for the cheaper end of things.

Agree, Laser War and WCS 94 are fantastic pins for what they cost!
Pretty much agree with what has been posted: The Shadow, Fish Tales, Bram Stoker's Dracula, World Cup Soccer, Baywatch, Jurassic Park, NBA Fastbreak, Johnny Mnemonic, Terminator 2, Judge Dredd, Demolition Man, High Speed II: The Getaway, etc. Some are a over $3,000 at this point, but deals pop up. Don't chase specific tiles, unless you really know what you want. Make a good list and buy whatever pops up at a decent price.
