!WOH! CALM DOWN! :p
Your engine might be flooded. Pull the EGI fuse under the hood and crank the engine for about 10 seconds wide open throttle. Then put the fuse back in and try starting.
I doubt it is your coilpacks.
Go here for the specs on the coil packs:

Pull a spark plug wire. With your left hand touch exposed metal on the engine or frame (ground). Place spark plug wire on tip of tongue and have friend crank engine. Your tongue will tell you if you have spark.
Alternative method, attach timing gun pickup to each of the plug wires, one at a time, and crank and see if timing gun light blinks. If it does, you got spark and your engine is probably flooded. 37k miles is too low of mileage for anything to go bad. If car has not been run in a while, its possible your fuel is bad and gummed up an injector or two.
