Mario Kart 7 will not drop its 60 fps framerate for online multiplayer matches and allows for customized racing leagues/groups. The StreetPass mode allows for races to be scheduled and the exchanging of racing groups between 3DS owners. SpotPass allows "ghost racers" to be uploaded from other people's races.

Recap of the news regarding the 3DS system itself from Nintento include (no guarantee all will be available outside of Japan):

You'll be able to record up to 10 minutes of video and tweak your clips afterwards, even enabling stop-motion animation. * There's a map overlay to show where Miis you've collected in StreetPass are from. * You'll be able to transfer software to other 3DS systems. * The 3DS RPG Find Mii will get a sequel, available only if you've cleared the first iteration.
