Am I doing something wrong? Is this normal? I mean that sound is disturbing, especially when you push the clutch really fast. Should I take it to the dealer?

The clunking clutch and any "cement mixer" sounds you might hear from your clutch/drivetrain are normal for Z's. If you do a search for it you'll see everyone experiences it.
I'm not quite sure I understand the rest of your post. When engaging the clutch in first gear your shifter vibrates violently? I think that's what you're saying. This is what happens if you're not giving it enough gas. The shifter is mounted directly on the transmission so vibrations are transmitted to the shifter itself and that's why it vibrates.
