The unprecedented demand for the pony car goes on and a dusting of Ford Performance tuning options will likely buoy its popularity through to a facelifted version due in 2018.

Hyundai Veloster – 1359

It might lack monstrous power, but Australians still love the Veloster. A vast majority are sold in automatic form, and its unusual styling and everyday usability keep customers coming.

Sales for Mazda’s iconic two-seater may have dropped off since its 2015 launch, but it still ranks fifth in its class. Tin-topped RF has boosted interest, and expect special edition variants to follow.
