Do this next time you head out in the morning or vehicle has been sitting for at least 6 hours or so.

Turn the ignition to 'Run', listen for the fuel pump to prime for a second or two, then turn ignition to off.

Repeat 2 or 3 times

Finally, crank up the car. If it fires right up (or at least quicker) I'd suspect the fuel pump. Also, last time you changed fuel filter?

How many miles are on the car?

I'd change the plugs. It probably could use a new fuel filter as well but I doubt that'd fix the problem by itself.
