Congrats on your new car... like others mentioned, the revs come down fairly quick and 1st to 2nd is a bit slow.... so you either rev the engine while shifting or let the clutch half way and you'll feel when it engages.... and then release it completely while accelerating.... but the 2nd option might wear your clutch a little. Well... do what people mentioned above, then you can look into upgrading your motor mounts and that might solve about 90% of the shifting issue... simply cus 2nd gear is a bit stubborn and there is not cure for that.

The clunking sound is natural... when parking or driving slow.... push the clutch slow and you won't hear it.


Good luck.
