Check your terminals to see that they are tight and clean.
Make sure you are in park if its auto (youd be surprised how often that gets missed)
You may have run the battery down if you have a big ass sound system (jump start it)
You may have water in the electrics if you washed it ( give at a while and try again)

the same thing happened last night to a friends magna. We turned the car off and left it for 5 minutes and it started right away. You most likely just need a new battery.
