I prefer to travel by airplane for a long distance. Travel by car is more comfortable than by train. I go to university by subway. Usually I go on foot.

    The traveling by car is more comfortable for me, because I like to look in outside the window. The music in saloon of inside the car is nice too. But of course I mean quiet soft music.

    You probably didn't mean the "saloon." My guess is you had in mind the Russian automotive term, and looked it up and ended up with "saloon". There's not need to specifically say inside "the passenger compartment" of the car.

    There is loud music, such as most rock 'n roll, and heavy metal; and there is soft music. When there is no music at all, it is quiet.

    Excellent efforts. Good attention to details. A little weak on the grammar side. As you learn more, you'll also have a larger vocabulary so you can always use the most appropriate terms and expressions.

    Very good.

    'Travelling by car ...' is better.
