Alex's suggestion will work for what you want:
<%if query like 'automobiles'%>
<%include search_auto.html%>
<%elsif query like 'computers'%>
<%include search_computers.html%>
..
<%else%>
<%include search_default.html%>
<%endif%>
You just need to tweak the templates so that they display how you want them to.
I did have a related question though. I would like to not only have the search results for "automobiles" display using the automobile.html template, but also be listed without grouping by categories.
Right now, I can turn category display on or off for the entire site, but is it possible to control the grouping by categories for just a single search term?
