The main difference is aesthetics.
The 107M New Classico has an all plastic body with a retro look.
The 109M Caffe Gusto has some stainless steel trimmings added to the plastic body and has a classic design element with a provision for a warmer plate for place your espresso cups.
The other difference is Thermoblock Wattage.
The 107M is equipped with a 1050 watt thermoblock while the 109M is equipped with an 850W thermoblock.
The price to wattage rating might seem skewed, but due to a tweak in the design, the 109M has a more efficient thermoblock.
