Could be a number of things.

Common issues would be a clogged fuel system of some sort, and/or too low of an idle. Whats your idle at before it dies? how often do you do tune ups? ( plugs, wires, oil, cap, rotor, ect) Have you tried putting some injector cleaner thru your system?

when the car dies u need to check to see what u lost i.e. either spark or fuel. If it is spark i would look torwards a faulty coil or igniter. If u lost fuel pressure i would ck the main relay first. Good luck
