Are there any published benchmarks to compare SQL Server 2012 to SQL Server 2008 R2. I am not particularly concerned with the newer features, I really just want to find some benchmarking of queries executed by the database engine

There has been a recent publication of a presentation regarding SQL Server performance improvments on the Technet site.

"Benchmarking of queries" is quite a broad field where measurements in different scenarios will produce quite different and sometime surprising results. If you really want to know how it will perform in your specific environment, there is no way but to load real data and run real queries against it.
