Each company offeres 1 to 5 different options/products and as per how the software is made, it (software) will create one unique page for each option/products... So we talking about approximately 18,000 options for end users, but most of these pages will have about 90% of content same, as on every page all the available features will be present and features offered by the company will have "checkbox-selected" image next to it and features not offered by the company will have "checkbox - not selected" image next to it.
Am I running a risk of getting in trouble by google, or so should I spend more money and get those pages generated with dynamic urls or just use robots text to disallow spiders to visit those pages.
I would still like to use the pages as it is.. you guys can help me out to clarify the situation.
any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks.

Can't see a problem with this from the users perspective as long as the navigation is user friendly.
18.000 pages could be a great se traffic source, allthough i don't blindly recommand doing it. You should have at least different titles, different headlines and as much different body content as possible. Use alt texts for the images. Reduce the similar content (navigation, teasers, ads etc.) to a minimum to give the different text parts between the pages as much weight as possible compared to the (shared) rest.
Ah, and try to get more unique content for each page anyway. :)
