It may be technically correct but it's not used very often and the name GT 86 and GTS 86 are the ones most people use and recognise, me included.

It's a bit like the name you were given at birth that usually changes a bit in actual use. You always get someone who insists on using the original version for some reason but it sounds strange and a bit embarrassing.
