ok well... here's the thing. I've read alot about people flooding their motor but, i made sure that i didn't make the same mistake. I doubled checked that the car was warm before i shut it off.
i don't want to try the de-flooding method to get gas in my oil. I'm sure i didn't flood it.

wouldnt starting fluid work like a champ?? hold throttle to the floor and have a buddy spray a small amount down your intake while you crank on it.. make sure to hold throttle down 2 floor! 
( im not sure if this will work)

ok.. guys i'm back.
Today i went to start up the car and it cranked over just fine.
so... I'm thinking its not electircal? or engine problems ( even though there is a new engine with 6500 mil)
so... do you guys think its flooding due to bad clogged injector OR
bad starter?
thnx for help

its easier to wire a fuel pump cut off switch. hide it in the ash tray or something. it can serve as a good anti theft device too. if theres no fuel it wont start. makes sense to me. unless they drag it onto a trailer...
when mine floods (rare) i unplug the fuel pump plug under the rear hatch carpet (blue wire coming out of big metal plate on driver side) Crank it with the gas pedal pushed down until it starts then when it dies (on its own) try to restart it. if it wont start plug the fuel pump back in and it should start just fine.
a little tip... if its a sticky injector dont shut the car off unless its fully warmed up.

also its not blown. if one apex seal breaks loose it scrapes up the entire housing and rotor. usually unseating the other 2 seals or at least "decapitating" them or cracking them rendering the rotor dead and running of the other rotor at half power. youll be lucky to reach 70mph on a blown apex seal motor.
