I'd be more likely to use "impressive" for something that is an exhibition of skill, and "amazing" for something that could be a fluke, or nigh impossible.

Would Darth Vader use Amazing? Roland00 - 27/02/2010 12:38:07 AM 580 Views
Not much and "amazing" is way overused. everynametaken - 27/02/2010 02:24:00 AM 560 Views
Impressive leans towards skill, amazing leans towards luck. In that context anyway. *NM* Wibble - 27/02/2010 11:48:04 AM 214 Views
"Impressive" is more anthropic and deliberate... JasonD - 28/02/2010 10:28:58 PM 601 Views
