Sounds like the EIS is on the fritz. It's the anti-theft device. It "kicks-in" right after the engine begins to fire, killing the engine. My car did the EXACT same thing. New EIS (dealer said updated version, truth?) solved problem for several years now.

Have you tried the other key? If not, do so. If it does it on both keys, might be the EIS. If not, then it might be the key.

If the EIS is fine and the keys are fine, then you'll probably have to start the "usual suspect" route of fuel and spark. Misfires that are persistent usually set of the CE light...
