AMS had the 458 doing 0-200 in 10.4.
Form 0-200 km/h the S is faster.
FWIW, Quattroruole always has faster numbers for Italian cars/
You have to wait for AMS test of Turbo S. Autozeitung provides extremely good times usually, comparable to Quattroruote.
With regular Turbo PDK, AMS did 0-200km/h in 11,2s and Autozeitung 10,4s. Turbo S will hardly be faster in AMS than Italia.

BTW, German Auto Zeitung tested 997.2 Turbo S cabrio in latest issue.
Results...
0-100km/h 3.0s(!)
0-200km/h 10.2s(!!)
1661kg measured weight
Wow, I'm gonna sell my 458, at least I don't have to post pics then. 
The secret of life is to admire without desiring.

Don't sell it! It is an amazing car.
Pics? Personally, I do not need them. Just enjoy your 458...
Back OT... 997.2 Turbo PDK or Turbo S are also amazing sportscars-by far the best value in 500ps+ class IMHO.

0-100mph: 6.8s
0-120mph: 9.8s
1/4 Mile: 11.0s
Bedford track: 1.1s faster then SLS AMG...
BTW, these resluts implies that Turbo S till 220km/h at least as fast as 458 Italia.
The results of a 997 Turbo S from a "private" testing (various runs, using performance box and GPS):
0-100 kph in 2.9 seconds (very impressive)
0-200 kph in 10.3 seconds

Customer car ?
One or two passengers ?
From the tests so far, it seems that Turbo S has 0,3s advantage in 0-100km/h and 0,3s advantage in 100-200km/h. I would expect bigger difference in 100-200km/h.

This shows just how much the 4wd tractions and PDK gearbox helps the lower speed acceleration numbers. This is just like the Nissan GTR (just sold mine).
The 100-150mph times are still great, but are relatively less impressive as they are much closer to the R8 and SLS and slower than the 599.

Nice to hear these numbers....
...and of course thinking on the close delivery date of mine...

With numbers like that the Turbo S really is (performance wise) value for money
I get to try one, a Turbo S that is, myself July 8th when I do a "Car Control" day at Silverstone ...and I won't be far behind Conny as my birthday present will be ready to pick up from the factory W/C 19th.
The wait is agonizing especially with the weather we are having here in the UK
