Wow some heated debate going on here. All in all they are the same powerwise (TL-S and G). I own 05 G 6spd, buddy of mine (member on here) owns 07 TL-S auto. We ran a straight line and I beat him once and he beat me the second time (he has XLR exhaust, intake and J-pipe i think). Can't compare cornering since we did not do that, but straight line they are the same.
OPs question was not answered to this point...wish I could help him in that but I can't.

OP, the TL-S feels a lot like the '04-'06 base when driving normal which is firmer than the '07-'08 base. When you start pushing the limits the TL-S starts to stand apart. You notice the slightly stiffer springs, shocks, and swaybars but only when you start pushing the pace.
I've only been in one G35 and I was pretty wasted at the time so I can't comment. It's a pretty safe guess tha the TL-S feels a little more refined and laid back but it's only a guess based on other's experiences.

FWD (especially the TL / TL-S / Accord) have a lot of liftoff oversteer .. you can REALLY notice it when you're putting the hammer down in a corner and quickly remove the throttle with the same steering angle. The nose of your car will dive making the rear end of the car light causing it to oversteer.
You could see a lot of that in the video .. you see the RPMs drop with some counter steering ..
