Is this normal oil consumption?

Man, after all the problems I am reading about, Oil consumption at 32k, clutches with the life span of a butterfly etc. I am wondering if I made a mistake buying this. (2013 6mt+spt) I love the car but after reading all the stuff on this forum it seems like a time bomb.

I guess the question is how much of this perception is based in reality vs the total number of cars out there and who posts about issues? Are we talking 50%? 2%? 100% on the clutch issue sooner or later or what?

I would like to have rock solid confidence every time I am pulling my Z out
but not inspired by what I read. My gut feeling is this is just perception because you read about specific events and the majority have no issues.
I hope at least.
