You can actually try several approaches to this....

First I find the syntax you use rarely reliably works...

If you use the syntax:

[if type="value" term="make" op="eq" compare="Make"]
[if type="value" term="model" op="eq" compare="Model"]
[and type="value" term="year" op="eq" compare="Years"]
<br>select make you haven't select anything<br>
[/if]
[if type="value" term="model" op="eq" compare="Model"]
[and type="value" term="year" op="ne" compare="Years"]
Year
[/if]
[if type="value" term="model" op="ne" compare="Model"]
[and type="value" term="year" op="eq" compare="Years"]
Model
[/if]
[if type="value" term="model" op="ne" compare="Model"]
[and type="value" term="year" op="ne" compare="Years"]
Model & Year
[/if]
[/if]

[if type="value" term="make" op="ne" compare="Make"]
[if type="value" term="model" op="eq" compare="Model"]
[and type="value" term="year" op="eq" compare="Years"]
Make
[/if]
[if type="value" term="model" op="eq" compare="Model"]
[and type="value" term="year" op="ne" compare="Years"]
Make & Year
[/if]
[if type="value" term="model" op="ne" compare="Model"]
[and type="value" term="year" op="eq" compare="Years"]
Make & Model
[/if]
[if type="value" term="model" op="ne" compare="Model"]
[and type="value" term="year" op="ne" compare="Years"]
Make, Model, & Year
[/if]
[/if]

That should work for you... The other thing I would try is since you are calling 
this page from a from your type might have to be type="cgi"...

Also you have a type in your code below... On the else if statement just above 
the HONDA,CIVIC line, you have mistyped you variable name... That can cause what 
you have done below...

> [if value make eq "Make"]
>         [if value model eq "Model"]
>               [if value year eq "Years"]
>                    <br>select make you haven't select anything<br>
>               [else]
>                    year
>               [/else]
>               [/if]
>          [else]
>               model
>          [/else]
>          [/if]
> 
> [elsif value model eq "Models"]
>             HONDA
> [/elsif]
> 
> [elsif value models eq "Years"]
>             HONDA,CIVIC
> [/elsif]
> 
> [else]
>             HONDA,CIVIC,1990
> [/else]
> [/if]
> 
> Resulting Output:
> CIVIC
> 
> 1990
> year [/else] [/if] [else] model [/else] [/if] [elsif value search2 eq
> "All
> Models"] make [/elsif] [elsif value search3 eq "All Models"] make,model
> [/elsif] [else] make,model,year
