What I think:
Very: It is a neutral term. Also, it is usually used when someone is giving new information
- Eg. You're gonna like her, she is very nice
Too - It has a meaning of 'excessive'
Eg. Can I open the window? This place is too hot.

Adding one grammar aside to the excellent commentaries given above.
Both of them go with adjectives:
Very and Too - emphasizes (intensifies) the word that comes after (more often than not - adjectives, but sometimes an adverbs.).
As pointed out "too" rings a negative sense to the following word, and "very" usually doesn't connotes a negative sense.
In the sentence "he drives very fast." it could be both, in a neutral sense or a negative one, though (depending on your tastes, whether you like speed or not.)
