As for options, that really depends on your what you want. Don't, for example, go for a Sport model if you plan to spend any time off road. And, as for pricing the best place to start research is carsales.com.au, drive.com.au or carpoint.com.au. Also check redbook.com.au

Thanks Fraser, will do some research on those sites re: pricing. Interesting that diesels are popular here, I know our American friends aren't that keen.
There is a bewildering array of options and variations of what is included standard depending on the year model.
