Try popping off the ignition cylinder bezel and tapping lightly on the the key hole with a hammer and see if the key will turn then.

My mistake you don't have a bezel on that car. You need to find a small enough ball pen hammer that the small end of the hammer fit's between the the two tong's of the cylinder then tap on the key hole.
