Used it all the time in the navy. "86 it." My memory agrees with this part of the Wikipedia entry.

Another possible origin is from the U.S. Navy's Allowance Type (AT) coding system used for logistic purposes. The allowance type code is a single digit numeric that identifies the reason material is being carried in stock. Throughout the life-cycle of a warship, many pieces of equipment will be upgraded or replaced, requiring the allowance of onboard spare parts associated to the obsolete equipment to be disposed of. The AT code assigned to parts designated for disposition is AT-6.

Asia, South Africa, South America and Australia it is a Toyota 86.

A GT86 in Europe.

An FT86 in Jamaica

FR-S in US and canada only

And then the BRZ monicker is worldwide.

The Scion FR-S is also sold in Puerto Rico.

For the OP as posted above the FT86 stands for Future Toyota 86.
@Tcoat did you know Scion owners in Puerto Rico get their own unique features the Scion FR-S owners don't get in the U.S.A?
