Like most disputes, the truth usually is somewhere near the middle between both side's stories.

I'd be pretty interested to see that written resignation letter.  That'd be a weird press release if they didn't have it.  I bet this stems from a misunderstanding about that letter.  It's probably something that Corona *could* decide to treat as a resignation if they wanted to, but it sounds like Holden didn't mean it that way.  We'll probably never know what happened.

I didn't realize there could be 2 firsts

"First, the industry does not need this type of ..."

"First, there is no doubt in my mind something over at Corona is..."

Then I didn't see a second.

Secondly, I really don't think that Corona has a great track record.

B, it does seem pretty clear that Honda & Corona decided to go with the "better option" and Holden be damned.

vii, first post.
