If you turn the key just to on and not to start, you can hear the fuel pump buzz so there's fuel pressure for the engine to start. I can always hear it very easily I my 2001 V6 Sedan. If you can't hear anything then it's most likely the fuel pump. Maybe you could disconnect the fuel hose(s) from where they connect to the fuel rail and see if anything comes out upon trying to start the car. Have a bucket on hand just in case the fuel pump does work. It may be safer actually to do this test at the fuel filter instead of in the engine bay. If you lift up the bottom of the rear seat there's around metal lid that resembles a paint can lid under a flap in the carpet. You can take that kid off for access to the pump and look to see if there's a loose connection maybe?
