One of the more obvious differences among the various boats will be transom configuration. Some will have the traditional notch for the motor, some an integrated step (or euro style), some may even have a bracket hanging out back. All of these have pros and cons. Some folks have strong preferences. I just bumped up another thread that goes into this in more detail -
