I assume a colleague is saying this to you. "too early" emphasises that it is actually inconvenient or wrong for you arrive at that time. " (albeit not impossible) because "too" is more of an external judgement than something the person themselves can explain.

"too early" emphasises that it is actually inconvenient or wrong for you arrive at that time. It also may not fit very well with "Why ...?" (albeit not impossible) because "too" is more of an external judgement than something the person themselves can explain.
"Why are you here so early?" would be typical.
