Cheaper transportation in the sense of car cost, or cheaper as in no mod bug, expensive tires, gasoline, etc.
If your looking for a cheaper car, good luck, you're going to give a lot up.
If your looking for a cheaper overall car, get a honda or acura, they don't require any maintainence and tires come cheap, plus they are full efficient.

If you are going to pay cash for a new car I suggest getting whatever but don't dump money into it and save. If you are financing another car then get something that will have a good resale value.
What are your payments now and what do you want your payments to be. If there is a diff what is the time diff in the savings if you are upside down on the Z.

If you can find one, then go ahead and buy it then flip it. S2000's are touchey around and lower then 15k too, they are only the higher milage ones for that price.
My .02, gets a used Lexus. You can get a nice 97 or older 5-spd SC300 for less then $10k with good milage. Hell, for right under $15k I bet you can find a twin turbo SC300, they are still more reliable then a stock E36 M3. If you want an auto then you can get a newer one. Also my friend just picked up a 01 IS300 with 84k miles for $15k out the door(with TTL). Early 2en gen GS300's go for less the $15k too. You can never go wrong getting a Lexus.

If you need something cheaper why not get something cheap like a used Honda Civic and save up until you are able to get the Z again or something else. You would be a lot better off buying a Civic which is going to be able to be sold for a little less than you paid for it a few years later.
