When I graduate next year why should I NOT buy a Maserati Coupe GT
You can find 5-8 year old models with under 50k miles for $20k-$30k. I know that they are expensive to maintain but so are all luxury/sports cars. I have heard that the Cambiocorsa models (the F1 style tranny) is unreliable and around $20k to replace but the GT model with the 6spd manual is cheaper and doesn't seem to have any issues. So why shouldn't I get one when I graduate/get a job?

it's my D in a B
Jon pretty much nailed it. And if that isn't good enough reason, because you can get a camry and and put that extra insurance and maintenance money into your porn collection.

Live Free Or Die
Aside from the maintenance, I'd worry about insurance rates. If it weren't for the insurance, I could probably start my midlife crisis early and get a Corvette (or a used 911), but I prefer being at ~$1,000 a year for two vehicles rather than >$4,000 a year for one vehicle right now. Thus, I will actually have to wait until midlife (which is approaching faster than I thought it would).
